What are some examples of adaptation?

Answer 1

Adaptation is an inherited trait that has been common in a population because the trait allows them to survive. For example some birds have bigger beaks while others are smaller around the world.

Answer 2

An example of an adaptation may be thick fur or fat under the skin to keep an animal warm. Sharp claws and teeth are also adaptations that help an animal to survive.

The long neck of the giraffe, the camouflage of the chameleon, the atrophying of the human appendix and the bio-luminescence of deep sea creatures.

Answer 3

Examples of adaptation include a chameleon changing colors to blend in with its environment, a cactus storing water in its thick stems to survive in arid conditions, and polar bears having thick layers of fat and fur to insulate themselves in cold climates.
