Question
animals may use one of several strategies to camouflage themselves as they attempt to avoid predators or pursue prey. in the form of camouflage known as disguise, an animal blends in with its environment thanks to its shape or texture. for example, some species of butterfly have wings shaped like leaves, which can make it difficult to spot a butterfly sitting on a branch in a forest. more common than disguise based on shape or texture is the camouflage strategy of concealing coloration, in which an animals color matches the color of its surroundings. concealing coloration is at work when a polar bear blends in with white snow. while concealing coloration involves matching the color of the surrounding environment, disruptive coloration uses the patterns of stripes or spots on an animals body as a form of camouflage. animals that use disruptive coloration often travel in groups in which the patterns on their bodies make it difficult to tell where one animals body begins and anothers ends. which term matches the picture?
Zebras have black - and - white stripes which break up their outline, making it difficult to single out an individual. This is disruptive coloration as it uses patterns (stripes) on their bodies to make it hard to tell where one animal's body begins and another's ends.
