Fashion a Fish

Fish Adaptations

Objectives

Students will be able to….

Describe adaptations of fish to their environments

Describe how adaptations can help fish survive in their habitat

Interpret the importance of adaptations in animals.

Background Info

Aquatic animals are the product of countless adaptations over longer periods of time. These adaptations, for the most part, are features that increase the animals’ likelihood of surviving in their habitat.

When a habitat changes, either slowly or catastrophically, the species of animals with adaptations that allow them many options are the ones that most likely to survive. Some species have adapted to such a narrow range of habitat conditions that they are extremely vulnerable to change. They are over- specialized and are usually more susceptible than other animals to death or extinction.

In this activity, you will design a kind of fish. You will get certain adaptations that your fish will have. Each choice you make would actually take countless years to develop. Ad these adaptations become par to the fishes design, the fish becomes better suited to the habitat in which it lives. Because of the variety of conditions within each habitat, many different fish can live together and flourish.

The major purpose of this activity is for you to investigate the concept of adaptation in fish.
