Adaptations are special that help organisms survive in their natural habitats. They can be structural or behavourial.

Adaptations are special features or behaviors that help organisms survive in their natural habitats. They can be structural or behavioral.

Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism like the bill on a bird or the fur on a bear. Other examples of structural adaptations could include a turtle's hard shell for protection, a giraffe's long neck for eating leaves high up in trees, or a snake's ability to slither on the ground and climb trees.

Behavioral adaptations are the things organisms do to survive. For example, bird calls and migration are behavioral adaptations. Other examples could include a possum playing dead to avoid predators, a kangaroo hopping to move quickly, or a bird building a nest to protect its eggs.

Both types of adaptations are important for the survival and success of a species.
