Choose two animals and list the traits that make them well adapted to their environments.
1. Camels:
- Camels have long legs with wide, padded feet that help them traverse across the desert sands with ease.
- Their humps store fat which allows them to go without food and water for days.
- They are able to withstand extreme temperatures, ranging from very hot during the day to very cold at night, due to their ability to regulate their body temperature.
2. Penguins:
- Penguins have a layer of blubber under their skin that insulates their body from the cold water they swim in.
- Their wings have evolved into flippers that propel them through water, helping them catch prey and escape predators.
- Their streamlined bodies and torpedo-shaped heads make it easier for them to swim quickly through the water to avoid predators.
