One adaptation is that the tiger's stripes help it blend in with the long grasses of the tiger's habitat. Another adaptation is that the tiger enjoys the water. This helps them cool off on a hot day. Their thick coat keeps them warm in the winter season.

Adaptations of epiphytes and stangler

They grow on trees to take advantage of the sunlight in the canopy. Most are orchids, bromeliads, ferns and Philodendron relatives.

The strangler fig tree have many adaptations one being that the strangler figs start their lives off as epiphytes, plants that do not root in the soil in their first stages of life, as at the ground level of the rainforest there is little light and a huge amount of competition for water and nutrients meaning that the majority of plants that start off on the ground have to adapt or die. The strangler fig has adapted by using other trees to get itself into the canopy where it is lighter.

Camel and hyena

Cactus and popcorn flower

Adaptations of a camel and hyena


Camels have a number of adaptations which help them survive in their desert environment. The most obvious is that camels have a hump (or two if they are Bactrian camels) which stores fat, which metabolises for energy. This enables the camel to go without food and water for a long period of time. The hump does not store water. When they do access water, they can drink up to 46 none -The Hyena communicates using a high pitch scream that is too high for humans to hear. -The Hyena has very strong jaws, which can crush bones or even tusks. - Hyenas have long tongues, to lick bark off of trees, to eat ants.

Adaptations of cactus and popcorn flower


Waxy leaves, long roots, most have needles The adaptations of the cactus includes small and spiky leaves that reduce evaporation of water. It also prevents loss of water. The cactus has also a thick and juicy stem that stores water. It carries out photosynthesis like any other normal green plant. - Covered in thorns: Helps protect the plant from

Adaptations of a kelp and coral


Kelp needs to withstand ocean currents, so it's roots/ hold fast is adapted to dig deep into the rocks and soil to make sure it doesn't drift anywhere. Kelp also has a very strong, fast growing stipe (stem), with floats (gas filled compartments that help the blades reach the sunlight at the surface), as this is where photosynthesis takes place, as well as mineral absorption as roots are used as anchors only.

mangroves are a type of plant in the coral reef biome and it adapted to living in water with a high salt level

Polar bear and penguin

Adaptations of polar bear and penguin


SWIMMING1.Polar bears are strong swimmers; they swim across bays or wide leads without hesitation. They can swim for several hours at a time over long distances. They've been tracked swimming continuously for 100 km (62 mi.). DIVING1.Polar bears make shallow dives when stalking prey, navigating ice floes, or searching for
Penguins are adapted to live in and near the ocean because they eat fish. They have special adaptations that allow them to live in the water. Penguins have webbed feet to help them swim faster, and their vision is believed to be better underwater than on land. They cannot fly in air because their wings are too small for their body weight, but their wings are adapted to help them live and dive in the water. The penguin is simply unable to create enough energy to take off. Penguins' wing bones are fused straight, rather than angled like a flying bird's, and this has the effect of making the wing rigid and powerful,
