Bio adaptation

A habitat is the place where a living organism lives. It provides important things like food, air, light, shelter, and space to reproduce. Different organisms, such as camels and cacti, can live in the same habitat.

Types of Habitats:

  • Aquatic: includes freshwater and marine areas

  • Terrestrial: consists of various land areas like deserts and mountains

  • Aerial: includes living spaces in the air

Adaptation: An adaptation is how an organism adjusts to the conditions of its habitat. Features that help plants and animals succeed in specific habitats are called adaptations.

Adaptation of Aquatic Plants:

  • Free Floating Plants:A) Large, flat leavesB) Waxy coating on leaves protects them from decay

  • Submerged Plants:A) Small roots to keep the plant fixed in the soilB) Leaves lack stomata; gas exchange happens through thin leaf structures

  • Fixed Aquatic Plants:A) Small, hollow stems keep leaves and flowers afloatB) Broad leaves with a waxy coating protect from decaying effects.

A habitat is an environmental area where an organism lives, providing essential elements such as food, air, light, shelter, and space for reproduction. Different types of habitats include:

  • Aquatic: Comprising freshwater and marine environments

  • Terrestrial: Various land areas such as deserts and mountains

  • Aerial: Spaces inhabited in the air

Adaptation is how organisms adjust to their habitats. Important adaptations for aquatic plants include:

  • Free Floating Plants: Large, flat leaves and a waxy coating to prevent decay

  • Submerged Plants: Small roots and leaves that facilitate gas exchange through thin structures

  • Fixed Aquatic Plants: Small, hollow stems for buoyancy and broad, waxy leaves to resist decay.
