Ocean Animals With Cool Adaptations

Animals adapt to their environments to help them survive.

Ocean animals with cool adaptations. Deep Sea Creatures refer to organisms that live below the photic zone of the ocean. If the animals want to survive they have to adapt. They have strong shells that protect them from wave action drying out and the prying beaks of predators.

Penguins an african penguin in south africa. One of the major behavioral adaptations of marine mammals is their ability to swim and dive. To protect itself from the blowing sand of the desert a camel has two rows of long and thick eyelashes.

Many animals such as cockles are adapted to live in these conditions. Oceanic plants are ocean-dwelling organisms that have special adaptations that allow them to survive in the rough ocean waters where they live. Kiwa hirsuta was found on the floor of the 7540-foot-deep 2300-meter-deep Pacific Ocean some 900.

They have streamlined bodies to help them swim fast and gills that suck the oxygen out of the water so they can breathe. The cooperative relationships between fishermen and their dolphins can. Closely related to orca whales Irrawaddy dolphins have adapted not through some physical trait but rather through a rather unique behavior.

In exchange the fishermen allow the dolphins to catch some of the fish they bring to the boat. These species have special adaptations and live at different depths of the ocean with the majority found on the ocean floor. Coastal plants need special adaptations to survive.

This region is not much explored. Some of the most amazing adaptations are from ocean animals like sharks jellies starfish stingrays and dolphins. The intertidal zone the pelagic zone and the abyss.
