📖 Your Story

You are a young scientist selected for the 'Great Indian Habitat Expedition' organized by the National Biodiversity Authority. Your mission is to travel across India's diverse regions - from the scorching deserts of Rajasthan to the snowy peaks of Ladakh and the depths of the Indian Ocean - documenting how plants and animals have adapted to survive in each unique environment.

What You'll Learn

  • Define and identify adaptations as special features that help organisms survive
  • Understand what a habitat is and how it provides for organisms' needs
  • Explain how biodiversity varies from region to region due to diverse conditions
  • Compare adaptations in hot desert vs cold desert camels
  • Describe plant adaptations like fleshy stems in cactus and conical shape in deodar trees
