CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -An ADAPTATION is any structure or behavior that helps an organism survive in its environment. A STRUCTURAL ADAPTATION is an inherited body structure. Webbed feet, sharp claws, beak type, wings for flying, feathers, fur, scales, spines, thorns, or types of leaves, can all help organisms survive in an environment.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are three types of adaptations: structural, physiological, and behavioral. Structural adaptations are how the animal’s body functions or looks on the outside. Body parts (like feet and ears) and body coverings (like fur and scales) are structural adaptations.

Detailed explanation-3: -Structural and Behavioral Adaptations An example of a structural adaptation is the way some plants have adapted to life in dry, hot deserts. Plants called succulents have adapted to this climate by storing water in their short, thick stems and leaves. Seasonal migration is an example of a behavioral adaptation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Examples of behavioral adaptation include migration, hibernation, learned behavior, alteration in the mode of reproduction, altered feeding habits, and distinct modes of communication.
