Adaptations
Many plants and animals have special features which allow them to survive in a particular habitat. A fish has gills to obtain oxygen from its watery environment. A frog has a slime coat to keep its skin from drying out. A cactus has special parts that allow it to store water for a period of time. Other plants have colorful, fragrant blossoms to attract insects. All these special parts are adaptations that help the organisms survive in their environments.
