1. Types of Adaptations

2. Types of Adaptations Structural
Physical features (Involves some part of the animal’s body)
Example: The long neck of a giraffe that allow it to eat items at higher elevations

3. Types of Adaptations Functional How their body works/functions
Example: A cheetah’s ability to run faster than most animals

4. Types of Adaptations Behavioral
What they do (Includes activities or behaviors that help an animal survive.)
Example: Owl’s eating at night since that is when rodents are most active

5. Types of Adaptations Reproductive How they reproduce
Example: Pregnant armadillos can wait to have a baby until the conditions are just right (up to 4 months after the “due date”)

6. Today… You will watch a video for each of these 6 organisms Bee Flies
Carpet Pythons
Marine Mammals
Swimming Crabs 
Tortoise Beetles
Velvetfish 
For each organism, you need to explain one adaptation using the sheet you were provided.
Note: At the end of each video, you can whisper to one person to discuss and/or seek help (if the class gets too noisy, this privilege will be taken away)
