Integrated Science: Adaptation

Adaptation - changes in the behavior and physical aspects of species
VIII. Adaptation
– any kind of inherited trait that improves the chances of survival and reproduction for an organism; changes in the behavior and physical aspects of species that make them better suited to their environment

A. Structural – involves the body of organism (camouflage, protective covering, aerodynamics, gripping mechanism, mimicry [batesian: species mimicking a different species; mullerian: same species mimicking same species; auto mimicry: mimicking certain body parts of species])

batesian: species mimicking a different species

B. Physiological – involve the metabolism of organism (hibernation, estivation, poison to predators or competitors)

C. Behavioral – includes migration, changing of shape, resource partitioning and species interaction
