Adaptations
  1. Interdependence
    1. Organisms require a supply of materials from there surroundings and other organisms to survive and reproduce
    2. Organisms including microorganisms have features/adaptations which allow them to survive best and thrive in there environment which they normally live in
      1. Animals and plants may be adapted to for survival in the environment which they live
        1. Plants often compete with each other for light, water, nutrients from the soil and space
          1. adaptatations include: surface area(leaves), water storage tissues, extensive root systems
          2. Animals often compete for territory, food, water and mating parteners
            1. adaptations include: changes to surface area, amount of body fat, thickness of insulating layer, camouflage.
            2. Some organisms live in very extreme environments, EXTREMOPHILES may be tolerant to high levels of salt, high temperatures or high pressures
              1. Animals and plants may be adapted to cope with environment specific features E.G thorns, poisons and predator deterring colours.
