Crabs are important predators, and the continuing struggle between them and their prey prompts the evolution of newer adaptations: the massive and often highly ornamented shells of many marine mollusks are thought to be a protective response to the predatory activities of crabs; in turn the crabs ...
Cetacean - Marine Mammals, Aquatic Adaptations, Conservation: Cetaceans are carnivorous aquatic mammals distributed in all oceans and some river systems. All are social to some extent, and many exhibit epimeletic behavior. Play is a common behavior. Many
Most introduced species do not survive extended periods in new habitats, because they do not possess the evolutionary adaptations to adjust to the challenges posed by their new surroundings. Some introduced species may become invasive when they possess a built-in competitive advantage over indigenous ...
