Structural and Behavioural Adaptations

A hub for learning how animal features and behaviours help survival.

Adaptations should not be listed as random facts. Students must explain how a structure or behaviour helps an organism survive.

Core idea

Structural adaptation = body feature + how it helps. Behavioural adaptation = action/habit + how it helps.

Answer frame

Feature -> Function -> Survival Advantage.

Student reminder

Student Note

“Do not just name the feature. Explain how it helps the animal survive.”

“Feature. Function. Survival advantage.”
