2. WATER ANIMALS PHISICS CHARACTERISTICS
• ALL AQUATIC ANIMALS ARE NOT EQUAL. ANIMALS HAVE SIMILAR AND DIFFERENT
CHARACTERISTICS.
• WE WILL OBSERVE EXAMPLES OF ANIMALS LIVING IN WATER AND WE WILL NOTICE PHYSICAL
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THEM.
• AQUATIC ANIMALS VARY WIDELY, BUT GENERALLY SHARE THE ABILITY TO SWIM/MOVE
QUICKLY UNDERWATER, AND ARE OFTEN UNABLE TO LEAVE THE WATER FOR EXTENDED
PERIODS.
• ASIDE FROM THESE BASIC CHARACTERISTICS, WATER ANIMALS VERY WIDELY. MAMMALS LIKE
SEALS AND WHALES NEED TO BREATH AIR FROM THE SURFACE TO SURVIVE, SOME NON-
MAMMALS HAVE SCALES WHILE OTHERS HAVE SHELLS, SOME SWIM USING FINS AND TAILS
WHILE A FEW USE WATER JETS (LIKE THE NAUTILUS). THERE IS AMAZING VARIETY IN THE
WORLD’S OCEANS AND LAKES, EVEN PONDS AND PUDDLES.
