   Why do marine mammals need extreme adaptations?

   • The ocean environment presents extreme conditions for marine mammals that require extreme, almost superpower-like, adaptations in order to thrive. Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that can be passed to offspring that help an animal survive and reproduce.

   How have marine organisms adapted to the environment?

   • Marine organisms have adapted to the great diversity of habitats and distinctive environmental conditions in the marine environment. Adaptations are many and varied but they are generally grouped into 3 main categories: structural, physiological and behavioural. Structural (or morphological) adaptations are the physical features of the organism.

   How do marine mammals survive in the ocean?

   • All mammals are warm-blooded, have hair or fur, breath air through lungs, bear live young, and produce milk through mammary glands to nurse young. The ocean environment presents extreme conditions for marine mammals that require extreme, almost superpower-like, adaptations in order to thrive.

   How do adaptations help animals survive?

   • Adaptations are physical or behavioral traits that can be passed to offspring that help an animal survive and reproduce. Dense fur or blubber acts much like Iron man's super suit, protecting marine mammals from cold temperatures.

   Some marine mammals, such as whales, migrate over large distances and may spend time in a combination of arctic, tropical and temperate waters. To cope with these temperature changes, they are endothermic or ‘warm blooded’.
