surroundings in order to survive. Adaptation is an alternation or adjustment by which a species or individual improves its condition in relationship to its environment. Earthworms have adapted in many ways over the pass generations in order to improve reproduction‚ to get food and to improve their defenses. Earthworms live in moist soil which contains organic matter. Earthworms do not have eyes or ears but they have a mouth and are sensitive to heat‚ light and touch. This adaptation is important to the survival

Also‚ as we have all been taught‚ everything has pros and cons. Traits or adaptations are no exception. No adaptations are completely good and none are completely bad. Take a fish’s gills for example. Gills are a great adaptation for fish. If fish did not have gills‚ they couldn’t get the oxygen to live. But say‚ suddenly‚ all of the water on earth dried up. Then gills would just as suddenly turn into a terrible adaptation. This case is a little unrealistic‚ but it shows just how wrong it is to think

Most of the primates are omnivorous but might concentrate on certain foods and have adaptations for eating those foods. Adaptations for folivory: Molars have cuspss that are high/large and connecting the cusps is rigid enamel. The teeth come together and act like siccors to cut the leaves for digestion. Can have more complex/multichambered stomachs. Colobus monkeys have complex stomach like cows Adaptations for frugivory: Low rounded cusps Mortal and pestal like more crushing. Broad incisors

There are many ways that the Craniates and the Arthropods have adapted their bodies and their lives to be able to leave their aquatic habitats and live on land. There are many adaptations that happen both on the outside and the inside of the animal that make it possible for life outside of the water. In the Craniates‚ anything from the cranium‚ notochord‚ endoskeleton‚ central nervous system‚ brain‚ lungs and gill slits‚ and the ability to maintain their body temperature in the inside and the well-developed

reconstructed problem-solving adaptations‚ the science then attempts to establish the common roots of our ancestral behavior‚ and how those common behavioral roots are demonstrated today in the widely scattered cultures of the planet. The goal is to understand human behavior that is universally aimed at the passing of one ’s genes into the next generation. The evolutionary theory of learning states that the way humans learn has evolved from generations and generations of adaptations. Evolutionary psychology

Hans Selye’s General Adaptation Syndrome Scientist Hans Selye (1907-1982) introduced the General Adaptation Syndrome model in 1936 showing in three phases what the alleged effects of stress has on the body. In his work‚ Selye - ’the father of stress research‚’ developed the theory that stress is a major cause of disease because chronic stress causes long-term chemical changes. He observed that the body would respond to any external biological source of stress with a predictable biological

2: What is the main difference between physiological adaptation (as in sense‚ respond and adapt to the environment) and evolutionary adaptation? Evolutionary adaptation occurs over generations. Evolutionary adaptation does involve genetic change but it’s the change in traits as a result of genetic change that drives natural selection and evolutionary adaptation (just genetic change alone won’t drive evolutionary change). Physiological adaptation is an adjustment to environmental stress.
