Question

one of the crosscutting concepts we discussed was about structure and function how each major group of organisms has evolved its own particular body part in ways that make particular functions possible. give an example of one of these. you can start your sentence with \the structure of _____\. the structure of a birds wing, with its aerodynamic. one of the characteristics of living things is that living things adapt to their environment. give an example of two adaptations of a specific organism. your answer

Explanation:

For the first part, the structure of a bird's wing with its aerodynamic shape (long, curved feathers and a lightweight bone - structure) allows for flight by generating lift. For the second part, consider a camel. One adaptation is its hump which stores fat that can be metabolized into water and energy in arid environments. Another is its wide - spread feet which help it walk on sand without sinking.

Answer:

1. The structure of a bird's wing, with its aerodynamic shape (long, curved feathers and lightweight bone - structure), enables flight by generating lift.
2. A camel has two adaptations: its hump stores fat for water and energy in arid conditions, and its wide - spread feet prevent it from sinking in sand.
