The Survival Of

Organism
After this learning, you are :

Comparing the forms of the

adaptation.
Explaining the importance of
adaptation for the living organism
survival.
Giving examples of each form of
adaptation.
 ADAPTATION :
 The ability of organism to respond
environment change the changes in their
environments
 There are three types of
adaptation:
1. Morphological Adaptation
2. Physiological Adaptation
3. Behavioral Adaptation
Morphological
Adaptation is:
• The way how organism adapt
themselves by changing their
morphology
Figure 1. The feet of birds
are examples of
morphological adaptation
FIGURE 2. The beaks of
birds are examples of
morphological adaptation
The shape of leafs of
Enceng gondok
The example of
Morphological Adaptation
Physiological
Adaptation is :
• The way how organism adapt
themselves by changing their
physiological
The examples of
Physiological Adaptation:
• Herbivores, also called herbivorous animal,
eat chiefly a lot of cellulose, because
herbivores have cellulose enzymes in their
body
• Teakwood trees lose their leaves in the dry
season to reduce evaporation
• Freshwater fish, where its osmotic
pressure is lower than its surrounding
Behavioral Adaptation

• The way how animals adapt

themselves by changing their
behavioral
The examples :

• Cat sleeps by curling its body

when the weather of cold.When
it is hot cat sleeps by stretching
its body
• Desert rats and snakes dig
holes to avoid the heat of
sunlight
