The ________ of an animal helps keep it upright and stable. Humans mimicked this solution when we made a tripod.
The ________ of an animal helps keep it upright and stable. Humans mimicked this solution when we made a tripod.
The tail of many animals keeps it upright and stable when standing on two legs. The tail acts as a third limb to keep it from falling over. The same thing happens with a tripod for a camera or phone. The three legs keep it steady.

Humans can mimic or copy the ways animals survive to help us as well. Porcupines raise their quills when a predator approaches to scare them away or even stick them if they get too close. Humans use sharp strips on the ground to pop car tires and warn drivers to stop. We are mimicking animals to solve problems.

Humans are mimicking animals' ears and eyes to help us keep our own houses safe. Many animals have excellent hearing and vision, and this keeps them safe from predators, especially at night. Humans cannot see in the dark, so motion detectors and lights help us to see cameras record what happens so we can watch it. The alarm system acts like eyes and ears to keep us safe.

Scuba divers use dive equipment and tanks to help them breathe underwater. Fish use _________.
Scuba divers use dive equipment and tanks to help them breathe underwater. Fish use _________.
Fish use gills to take in oxygen under the water and survive. Humans use tanks and scuba diving equipment in order to breathe underwater. We do not have the ability to breathe underwater on our own like fish so we must mimic them to explore the ocean.

Which animal should we mimic or copy if we want to create clothes to keep us warm in the winter?
Which animal should we mimic or copy if we want to create clothes to keep us warm in the winter?
Polar bears are suited to freezing weather. They have thick skin and heavy fur to keep them warm and safe against cold temperatures and high winds. If we wanted to make clothing based on an animal, we should make heavy coats make of thick, fuzzy warm material. If we wanted to blend in with the snow like a polar bear we would even make the coat white!

Sharks have very sharp teeth used for eating meat. Which kitchen tool is like a sharks' tooth?
Sharks have very sharp teeth used for eating meat. Which kitchen tool is like a sharks' tooth?
A knife is sharp and has a blade similar to a sharks' tooth. The shark is a carnivore, which means it eats meat, so its teeth are adapted to help them catch and eat their prey. Humans have sharp teeth but need some help cutting up our food. Knives serve the same function as sharks' teeth.
