Question
Name and explain about three animals that are adapted to live in rainforests. [3 MARKS]
Answer:
:
Each animal and its adaptation: 1 Mark
1.Red-eyed frogs have sticky pads on their feet which help them to climb trees. Monkeys also have long tails that help them to hold onto branches. This is how they adapt to find food and live on trees.
2. A lion-tailed macaque stands out for the silver-white mane that covers its head from the cheeks to the chin. It is also known as a beard ape and can climb very well. It survives mainly on fruits, seeds, stems, young leaves, flowers, and buds. Macaques spend the maximum time of their life on trees as they get sufficient food on the tree itself.
3. The large tusks of elephants are modified teeth and are used to tear the bark of trees for food. Their large ears help them to hear even very soft sounds and also keep them cool in hot and humid climates.
