Habitat can mean the natural habitat of any creature or plant, but can also simply mean where something lives now. In the latter case, adaptation probably has taken place to enable the plant or animal to modify its structure, form or behavior in order to live and reproduce in a new environment. So, humans might migrate to a new area, taking animals and plants with them, and they all need to adapt to their new habitat if they are to survive. Similarly, one couldn't describe school as the habitat of young children, but when youngsters begin schooling they need to adapt to this new environment. ________________________ Habitat is where an animal lives. Adaptation is maybe an animal such as a monkey was injured and had to go to a rescue center But when it was better they had to release it, it would have to Adapt to its new or natural environment. Adaptation is where an animal has totally adapted to its new or natural environment.

∙ 6y agoThe environment is the area around a species, including climate, predators, food, shelter, etc. An adaptation is when an animal needs new methods of survival. For example, hawks don't have a great sense of smell so they adapt by gaining very sharp eye-sight through natural selection and evolution (think of Pokemon if that helps ^_^).
Adapting to the environment means to learn it and adjust to fit in. For example when you move from denver to dallas you adjust to extreme heat in the summer to mild winters and also Allergies.

What is an adaptation in response to seasonal changes?
hibernation
What is the difference between the biological meaning of adaptation and the common meaning of adaptation?
Adaptation (n) 1. Biology: alteration or adjustment in structure or habits, often hereditary, 2. Change in behavior of a person or group in response to new or modified surroundings.
What gives a rise to plasma cells during primary immune response?
B-cells differentiate into plasma cells and memory cells in the primary immune response. The memory cells then produce antibodies.In the secondary, memory cells created in the primary differentiate into plasma cells and secrete antibodies immediately. This is a much faster response, explaining why the secondary response causes a person to suffer less or unnoticeably.
How will you differentiate between the different plant tissues?
by location and appearance
How would you differentiate between saturated unsaturated and super saturated?
JABOL
What is the difference between a response and an adaptation to exercise?
Response is short term, adaptation is long
What is the difference between a response and a adaptation?
Migrating toward warming weather is a bird's response to cold weather, while a wolf growing a thicker coat is adaptation.
What characteristic describes a long term response to the environment?
adaptation
What is the difference between a response to a stimulus and an adaptation?
If you place an electrode onto a muscle and the muscle contracts, that is a response to stimuli. An adaptation is the result of the evolution of a species to better suit its habitat. For example a snake is able to produce venom.

What is the difference between a behavioral adaptation and a learned adaptation?
A reflex is a response to a stimulus that the animal was born with, but a learned behavior is a response to a stimulus that the animal learns or is taught.
What is the relationship between sensory adaptation and negative adaptation?

The ability of an organism to change in response to changes in the environment is?
adaptation
Which of Merton's five modes of adaptation is not a deviant response?
