Explore the different types of adaptations in organisms - structural, physiological, and behavioral - that help them thrive in their environment. From fur on bears to special muscles in penguins, discover how these adaptations aid in maintaining homeostasis and survival. Witness how animals like poison-dart frogs and Siberian tigers have evolved unique behaviors to cope with challenges they face in the wild.

The bills/beaks on birds. • Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism. Two examples of this adaption: The fur on a bear. Structural Adaption
Physiological Adaption Physiological Adaptations are internal systematic responses to external stimuli(In physiology, a stimulus (plural stimuli) is a detectable change in the internal or externalenvironment) in order to help an organism maintain homeostasis(the tendency toward a relatively stable equilibrium between interdependent elements). Examples of Physiological adaption: Emperor penguins have special muscles that make their flippers stiff but not the shoulders and it helps them propel through the water Poison-Dart Frogs are cold blooded and it helps them stay alive.
Behavioral Adaption Behavioral adaptations are the things organisms do to survive. Examples of Behavioral Adaptions: Siberian Tigers swim and dunk themselves in water during hot days to cool themselves off Gorilla's Migrate or mark territories Harambe
