Physiological Adaptations to Extreme Environments in Animal Species

Abstract

Animals inhabiting extreme environments exhibit remarkable physiological adaptations that enable survival under harsh conditions. This paper examines adaptations to temperature extremes, hypoxia, and limited resources.
The paper discusses metabolic regulation, thermoregulation, and water conservation strategies. Physiological plasticity allows animals to respond to environmental stressors. These adaptations provide insights into resilience and evolutionary biology.
The paper concludes that physiological adaptation is a critical focus in zoological research, especially in the context of climate change.
