Many animals have specialized adaptations for obtaining food. Describe one feeding adaptation in a predator and explain how it improves survival.

5Question

A new species of animal has smooth skin, lays eggs in water, and undergoes metamorphosis. Based on these traits, what group does it most likely belong to, and how do these traits support your conclusion?

Answer Key

#	Answer
1	All animals are multicellular heterotrophs, meaning they are made of many cells and must obtain energy by consuming other organisms. This is important because animals cannot make their own food like plants do.
2	A vertebrate has a backbone, while an invertebrate does not. Example: a fish is a vertebrate, and an insect is an invertebrate.
3	A bird has adaptations such as feathers and hollow bones. Feathers help with flight, insulation, and protection, while hollow bones make the body lighter so it can fly more efficiently.
4	A predator may have sharp teeth or claws. Sharp teeth help tear flesh, and claws help catch and hold prey. These adaptations improve survival by making it easier to capture and eat food.
5	It most likely belongs to the amphibians. Amphibians commonly have smooth skin, lay eggs in water, and undergo metamorphosis from larva to adult.
