Answer 1

How are birds adapted to their aerial life?

Many of the bones in a bird's body are hollow, making the bird lightweight and better adapted to flying. Birds also have feathers that make flight easier. Long feathers on the wings and tail help birds balance and steer and other feathers provide insulation and protect birds from the sun's ultraviolet rays.

How do animals protect themselves from their enemies?

Just as prey use cues to detect the presence of predators, predators use cues to detect prey. Animals can therefore avoid attracting a predator's attention by minimizing cues of their presence, such as by remaining silent, seeking refuge, and reducing overall activity levels when risk of predation is high.
