Question
Structure and Functions of Organs
Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper about how the organism has adapted to survive in their
specific environment. Include the following points in your paper: Briefly describe the environment (temperature, landscape, food sources, etc.) and
describe the organism’s role in the environment. Determine which organism your chosen
organism be most closely related to using a phylogenetic tree. Identify the structures and functions of the main organs found in your selected organism. Explain how the organism has evolved physiologically to become suited to its
environment. Explain how things would change if the organism were to be transplanted to a
significantly different environment: Would their organ system still be as efficient? Why or why not? Would the organism survive in this new environment? Why or why not?
