Ocean Animals With Cool Adaptations. Sharks are very good at finding food. Robert on may 24, 2012:
Most of the animals of the south polar region are seasonal visitors, conditions are just too hard for most animals to live there in the. Scientists long thought that life couldn't exist at hydrothermal vents deep in the ocean. Some animals display the ability to camouflage while others have interesting defense mechanisms that protect them from predators.
Identify and describe adaptations that help specific ocean organisms survive.
Many animals are able to engage in certain behaviors which have no discernible function and may not be a part of adaptation. How different is life at the surface of the ocean from life at the bottom? This interdisciplinary unit helps students learn about the ocean by exploring marine animal adaptations and diversity. But with great competition for natural resources, how do animals living in this environment adapt for survival?.
