Predator and Prey Adaptations

Genetic Bottleneck

Insecticide resistance

Four parts of Natural Selection

When a population decreases quickly to only a few members, genetic variation decreases. Can lead to diseases and birth defects.

Insects develop resistance to the insecticide. Crops are not protected and get ruined by insects. Kills crops. European corn borer

Overpopulation Genetic Variation Struggle to survive Successful reproduction

Cactus- very deep roots in the desert Chameleon - long, very fast tongue Birds have different shaped and size of beaks to get food in their biome (habitat).

Defense against predators: Camouflage (Chameleon, Alligator) Protective Armor (turtle, porcupine, cactus) Chemical warfare (skunk) Mimicry (non venomous snakes "look" like the very deadly coral snake). Spider webs are traps
