Three examples are: Polar bears with thick fur to ADAPT to the chilly environment.

Humans with the balancing mechanism in our ears to keep us balanced without tails.

And poison dart frogs developing poison, hence the name, to scare away predators.

Three non-examples are: Babies learning how to talk, walk, and potty train. Those are all learned and not adapted.

adaptation is when an animal trys to get used to their eviroment. three examples are a polar bear moving to a desert, it would have to adapt. another example is a dark moth moving into a light place, it would have to adapt so that nothing would eat it. the last example is a a dog moving to the Arctic it would have to grow its fur out.

Adaptation is a biological process by which an organism becomes better suited to its environment over time. Examples of adaptations include the camouflage of a chameleon, the hibernation of bears during winter, and the migration of birds to warmer climates. Non-examples of adaptation would be behaviors or traits that do not provide a survival advantage, such as a penguin's inability to fly, a giraffe's long neck for mating display rather than environmental adaptation, or a peacock's colorful feathers for attracting mates rather than camouflage for survival.

Ah, adaptation is like a happy little tree that changes to survive in its environment. Examples could be a chameleon changing color to blend in, a cactus storing water in its thick stem, or a polar bear having thick fur to stay warm. Non-examples would be a fish suddenly growing legs (that's more evolution), a bird choosing to migrate (that's more behavior), or a rock somehow learning to roll (rocks just stay put and that's okay too).

Adaptation is when you have to change your life because of something that has happened. Examples include people who lose an arm or a leg, someone who is paralyzed, and someone who loses a loved one.
