Dolphin
Class: Mammals
It lives in water, has lungs, and it jumps out of the water every now and then to get air through a hole in their head usually called a blowhole.
They have a blowhole on their head which allows them to breath, take water from the air and get back to water again.
Their elongated body shape allows them to move through water easily.
When a dolphin is sleeping, half of its brain stays awake and signals whenever the dolphin needs to get out of the water to get air.
They form pods or groups to move in them.
Communication, they increased the volume and length of their vocals and adapted their body language to face one another when the water noise gets higher.
Family structure, females stay with their pups, males stay together defending the pod and looking for food.
Penguin
Class: Birds
They are seabirds that do not fly, and they usually live around icy parts, or Antarctica.
They have a tail used as a rudder.
Dense, and smooth insulating feathers.
Strong breast muscles help provide power for flippers.
The feet are held close to the body for streamlining.
Flat bones bound tightly together create strong flippers for swimming.
They huddle in large groups.
Males do all the parental care.
They also have Monogamy, which is marrying one penguin and resting the chicks with just like humans they become partners.
Goldfish
Class: Fish
They have two sets of paired fins.
They have very accurate sense of smell and hearing.
Their heads lack shells.
Varied feeding, which is eating different types of food(they are omnivores, so all nutrients help them).
They can remodel their gills to increase respiratory surface area if there is not enough oxygen in the water.
Predator avoidance behaviors.
Frog
Class: Amphibians
They camouflage to hide from predators.
They have sticky pads to help them climb trees.
A strong skeleton to support its body against the pull of gravity.
Strong hind leg muscles for leaping.
Living near water sources.
adapting to certain environments to camouflage.
Communicating specific sounds for certain occasions.
Lizards
Class: Reptiles
They have movable eyelids that close, keeping its eyes moist. It's two eyes can move in different directions at the same time, helping the lizard find food and protect itself.
Lizards have a long tail that they coil it tightly around branches, giving it extra grip.
They have sharp claws that help them climb trees end the grip branches.
Their skin discover it with overlapping scales.
They also camouflage.
Lizards always stay in the sun when they are cold.
They bury themselves in the soil to escape from the ground heat.
Jellyfish
Class: Scyphozoa (Phylum Cnidaria)
Their bodies are transparent, or see-through, which allows them to be less visible to predators.
They have long tentacles, which are flexible limbs, that help in multiple things, including acting as arms to grab food.
Their tentacles have nematocysts, which are stinging cells that can be used to attack.

Survival needs
Physical and Behavioral Adaptations They have a blowhole on their head which allows them to breath, take water from the air and get back to water again. Their elongated body shape allows them to move through water easily. When a dolphin is sleeping, half of its brain stays awake and signals whenever the dolphin needs to get out of the water to get air. They form pods or groups to move in them. Communication, they increased the volume and length of their vocals and adapted their body language to face one another when the water noise gets higher. Family structure, females stay with their pups, males stay together defending the pod and looking for food.
Birds: Penguin General Information Penguin Class: Birds They are seabirds that do not fly, and they usually live around icy parts, or Antarctica.
Survival Needs: To get food, penguins get out of the water in search for fish and squid. They are carnivorous. Their habitat is in oceans and coasts. They also live on islands. They are endotherms.
Physical and Behavioral Adaptations: They have a tail used as a rudder. Dense, and smooth insulating feathers. Strong breast muscles help provide power for flippers.

They also have Monogamy, which is marrying one penguin and resting the chicks with just like humans they become partners.
Fish: Goldfish General Information Goldfish Class: Fish
Survival Needs: Goldfish are classified as omnivores. They eat plants, insects, crustaceans, and sometimes dead plants and animal parts found at the floor of the sea or ocean. They live in fresh water sources, usually slow-moving water. Ectotherms
Physical and Behavioral Adaptations: They have two sets of paired fins. They have very accurate sense of smell and hearing. Their heads lack shells. Varied feeding, which is eating different types of food(they are omnivores, so all nutrients help them). They can remodel their gills to increase respiratory surface area if there is not enough oxygen in the water. Predator avoidance behaviors.
Amphibians: Frogs General Information Frog Class: Amphibians
Survival Needs: Most frogs are carnivorous. They wait for their prey to come close, and feed on small animals. They live usually around any ponds to breed, and moisture areas because they are sensitive to the changes in the environment. They usually find shelter in trees, leaf litter, or in water. Ectotherms
Physical and Behavioral Adaptations: They camouflage to hide from predators. They have sticky pads to help them climb trees. A strong skeleton to support its body against the pull of gravity. Strong hind leg muscles for leaping. Living near water sources. adapting to certain environments to camouflage. Communicating specific sounds for certain occasions.
Reptiles: Lizards General Information Lizards Class: Reptiles
Survival Needs: Some lizards are herbivores, yet most of them are carnivores, they eat their prey by jumping at it. Large lizards eat frogs and birds. Small lizards eat insects. They live in dry areas such as deserts, forests, and rocky areas. Usually in trees or on the ground. Ectotherms
Physical and Behavioral Adaptations: They have movable eyelids that close, keeping its eyes moist. It's two eyes can move in different directions at the same time, helping the lizard find food and protect itself. Lizards have a long tail that they coil it tightly around branches, giving it extra grip. They have sharp claws that help them climb trees end the grip branches. Their skin discover it with overlapping scales. They also camouflage. Lizards always stay in the sun when they are cold. They bury themselves in the soil to escape from the ground heat.
Invertebrate: Jellyfish General Information Jellyfish Class: Scyphozoa (Phylum Cnidaria)
Survival Needs: They can capture their prey or injecting a poison to paralyze them so they can't move and slowly move to their prey by their mouth and pulling them from their oral arms. Jellyfish live in both cold and warm water around the world drifting along the ocean currents. Ectotherms.
Physical and Behavioral Adaptations: Their bodies are transparent, or see-through, which allows them to be less visible to predators. They have long tentacles, which are flexible limbs, that help in multiple things, including acting as arms to grab food. Their tentacles have nematocysts, which are stinging cells that can be used to attack. According to their somatosensory stimulation, they swim up, the water has low salinity, they swim down. Even though they don't have eyes their somatosensory stimulation can avoid rock walls. They swim in horizontal directions.
