Adaptation refers to the traits that enable organisms to live in a particular habitat. New adaptations are emerging in response to climate change and deteriorating air quality. Animals in seasonal forests and rainforests can adapt to changing conditions across seasons. Mountain animals find the moderate climate and water availability easy to adapt to. Plants require moderate conditions to perform photosynthesis for survival in places like Africa, Asia, and North America. Asiatic lions have light brown coloring that helps them hide from prey and front-facing eyes for better vision. Javan rhinos have a single 10-inch horn and thick, sensitive skin, using their prehensile lips to eat leaves and bark.

Q2. Think of new adaptations in plants or animals to survive according to the changing climate and air quality. Answers- A1- The presence of specific habitats which enable a living organism to live naturally in a place is called ataptation. New adaptations of animals due to change in climate and air quality are- A2 - Seasonal Forests or Rain forests - The climate in seasonal forests or rain forests change season to season and the conditions to survive can easily be adapted by animals. Answers- Mountain Adaptations - Climate on mountains is genrally moderate and plenty of water is avalaible. Thus, animals find it easy to adapt in the mountains. Moderate Climate - Plants need to perform Photosynthesis in the presence of all four conditions. To perform it, a moderate climate is important for survival of plants. Places where Neither to hot nor too cold - Places like Africa, Aisa and North America have the suitable conditions for survival of plants. Activity -3 Finger Puppets Endangered Animals - Asiatic Lion Javan Rhinos
Adaptive Features -
a. Asiatic Lion - The color of the
body is slight brown which helps in hiding from the prey. The eyes are located in the front which enables better vision. Activity -3 Finger Puppets b. Javan Rhinos -
It has a single horn of up to about
10 inches. Rhinos have thick but sensitive skin. They have a prehensile lip which they use to grasp and strip leaves and bark from woody plants. Thankyou (Rest will be presented in class.)
