Look up a Starfish 1. Give a brief description of its environment
2. List 3 possible adaptations it could have for its environment

The natural habitat of starfish spans right from the intertidal zone, i.e., the seashore which is exposed to the air during the low tide and goes underwater during the high tide, to the abyssal zone, which has a depth of roughly about 4000 – 6000 meters.

Can regenerate lost or damaged limbs.

carnivorous hunters that prey on specific animal species such as mussels, clams, oysters and sea snails

Starfish have tough, bony, calcified skin that protects them from predators

Explanation:

enhanced global partnerships and exploration capabilities may advance international preparedness for protecting the earth from catastrophic events such as some asteroid strikes, advancing collaborative research on space weather and protecting spacecraft by developing new means for space debris removal.

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
