Environmental changes allow animals to survive, adapt, and vary.
|
|
All animals survive when the environment changes, which leads to their variations and adaptations.
|
|
Animals have variations that may allow them to adapt and survive when the environmental changes.

Detailed explanation-1: -When an environment changes, differences between individuals can allow some plants and animals to survive while others die or move to new locations. Which statement best describes how it happens? Environmental changes allow animals to survive, adapt, and vary.
Detailed explanation-2: -Climate change also alters the life cycles of plants and animals. For example, as temperatures get warmer, many plants are starting to grow and bloom earlier in the spring and survive longer into the fall. Some animals are waking from hibernation sooner or migrating at different times, too.
Detailed explanation-3: -Adaptation: The adjustment or changes in behavior, physiology, and structure of an organism to become more suited to an environment.
Detailed explanation-4: -All organisms need to adapt to their habitat to be able to survive. This means adapting to be able to survive the climatic conditions of the ecosystem, predators, and other species that compete for the same food and space.
Detailed explanation-5: -Natural selection is a mechanism of evolution. Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success. This process causes species to change and diverge over time.
