Introduction

In this chapter, students will learn about the weather and climate of many locations, the adaptation of biological organisms to various climates, the polar areas and tropical rainforests. Apart from that, students will also study many faunal species, animals and birds that live in  different weather or climatic conditions..

7.1 Weather

You might have come across the weather forecast in the newspaper or on television. It displays temperature, humidity, and rainfall data for the past 24 hours and a weather forecast for the current day. As a result, a location’s weather gets described by the day-to-day atmospheric conditions in terms of temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind speed, and other elements. 

There are different elements of weather. Making a habit to follow the weather forecast in the newspaper on a daily basis helps to improve your knowledge and gives a better understanding of weather conditions.

7.2 Climate

 The climate of a place is defined by considering the general weather pattern over a long  period of time, usually 25 years or more. So, if the temperature in someplace is high most of the time, we may say the climate is hot; yet, if significant rainfall occurs in the same area at other times, we can say the climate is hot and wet.

7.3 Climate And Adaptation

The climate of any location has a significant impact on all the species that live there. Humans, animals, and plants that live in severely cold or hot climates have evolved specific adaptations to defend themselves from these extremes. This part will teach you about animal adaptation to different environmental conditions.

• The Polar Region

The polar region features harsh weather conditions and gets frequently coated with snow. It makes it bitterly cold. All the species that live in the polar areas have adapted to these bitter environmental circumstances. Polar bears have a thick covering of white fur. It protects them from severe cold. Polar bears go swimming on hot days. They have huge, wide paws, it makes them terrific swimmers and allows them to move effortlessly on snow. Like polar bears, penguins also have adapted admirably to harsh environmental circumstances. In this chapter, you’ll learn everything about the species that live in the polar region , their unique characteristics, and how they adapt to their native surroundings

• The Tropical Rainforests

As tropical zones are located near the equator, the climate is quite hot there. The temperature here in the summertime reaches 40 degrees celsius and above, and the days and nights are constantly of equal length. The main species in this region are monkeys, apes, lizards, leopards, elephants, and tigers. In this part, you’ll discover everything about the creatures near the equator and how they adapt to the region’s harsh climatic circumstances.
