3 Essential Question How do animals adapt to challenges in their habitat? by Mary Mackie Chapter 1 A Changing World Chapter 2 Tide Pool Adaptations Chapter 3 Tide Pool Predators Respond to Reading PAIRED Bluebird and Coyote READ Glossary/Index Focus on Science
4 Chapter 1 Take a walk along a rocky beach and, if you look closely, you can see a whole world of creatures at your feet. There are clusters of mussels. Small snails cling to rocks. The green sea anemone waves its tentacles in the water. Crabs hide beneath rocks. The world these animals live in is always changing. Twice a day, ocean water sweeps in and covers the land. Then the water rushes out again. Small pools of water are left behind, but the rest of the shore is dry. Tide pool creatures live in a world that is always changing. 2 George Grall/National Geographic/Getty Images
5 The small pools of water are called tide pools. Tide pools form in rocky areas where the land meets the sea. For example, one place you can find tide pools is along the rocky coast of California. Cavan Images/Digital Vision/Getty Images A tide pool is a habitat for many different plants and animals. A habitat is a place where a plant or an animal lives. It is a plant or animal s environment. Crabs live in tide pools on rocky coasts. 3
6 The tide pool habitat is made up of areas called zones. These zones form between the lowest low tides and the highest high tides. The low tide zone is mostly underwater. It is only exposed when the tide is very low. The mid zone is exposed twice a day by the tides. High Tide and Low Tide The high tide zone The tides are the is flooded at high regular rise and fall tide. The splash of the ocean. In most zone is mostly dry, places, the tide rises but is splashed and falls twice a day. with salt water When the rising tide is during high tides. Tide pools change as the tide rises and falls. at maximum height it is called high tide. When the falling tide reaches its lowest level it is called low tide. 4 ephotocorp/alamy

8 Chapter 2 Tide pools are difficult habitats to live in because they change so often. Tide pool animals need special features to help them survive. These features are called adaptations. Some adaptations help animals survive both in the water and out of the water. When it is covered by water, the sea anemone looks like a flower. It waves its long tentacles in the water, trying to catch fish. But when the tide pool is dry, the anemone changes. It hides its tentacles from the sun by pulling them into its body. The anemone also has a sucker disk that keeps it fastened to a rock. Strong waves won t wash it out to sea. Sea anemones have sucker disks to hold on to rocks. 6 Alex L. Fradkin/Photodisc/Getty Images
9 Barnacles, limpets, and mussels live in the splash zone. They are in the sun for much of the day. They have hard shells for protection. They are able to store water and food inside their shells. Snails, crabs, and hermit crabs also have shells for shelter and protection. Barnacles, limpets, and mussels have adapted to life in the splash zone. They have hard shells that protect them from the sun. Douglas P. Wilson/Frank Lane Picture Agency/Corbis 7
10 Sea hares are hard to see among the rocks and plants in a tide pool. Sometimes one adaptation is not enough. Californian sea hares, or sea slugs, live in the mid and low tide zones. To protect themselves from sun and waves they can shrink their soft bodies and hide between rocks. The sea hare also has other excellent ways to protect itself from predators. Its brown, spotted color makes it look like a rock. It is hard for an enemy to find it. If a predator comes too close, the sea hare shoots out purple ink. 8 Daniel L. Geiger/SNAP/Alamy
11 Sea urchins are related to sea stars. They belong to the same family. Like sea stars, sea urchins have hundreds of sticky tube feet. Unlike sea stars, sea urchins eat only plants. They have hard teeth to scrape plants from rocks. They also use their hard teeth to grind rocks. They make a hollow in the rocks to use as a home. Sea urchins are covered in spines. The spines are sharp and they contain poison. The sea star (left) and the sea urchin belong to the same family. Georgette Douwma/Photographer s Choice/Getty Images 9
12 Behavior can also be an adaptation. Many tide pool animals try to fool predators. A crab called the decorator crab covers its shell with seaweed and small shells to keep from being seen! Mussels are food for sea stars and other tide pool predators. They gather in large groups to stay safe. Periwinkles, oysters, and sand-castle worms also gather together in large groups. Decorator crabs can disappear among the shells and seaweed in a tide pool. 10 Jane Burton/Dorling Kindersley/Getty Images
13 A sand-castle worm uses its tentacles to catch plankton. Mussels live next to each other in beds. They do not join their shells together. However, sand-castle worms live together by building one large home. This group home is called a colony. When the tide comes in and covers the colony, the worms use their tentacles to catch food floating in the water. A Special Glue Robert F. Sisson/National Geographic/Getty Images Sand-castle worms have a special adaptation that helps them build their tubes. First, the worm collects something like a piece of shell. Then an organ on its head pushes a blob of glue out onto the shell. The worm wiggles the shell into place and lets the glue set. 11
14 Chapter 3 Tide pools have many predators. There is competition for food. Some tide pool animals have adaptations that help them catch and eat prey. Sea stars live on rocks around the tide pool. They move slowly over the rocks on special feet that have sticky suction cups. Their feet stop the sea stars from being washed away. Sea stars feed on shellfish such as mussels that live on the rocks. Sea stars have an amazing way of feeding. They use their sticky feet to open the mussel shells. Then they push their stomach out through their mouth and into the mussel s shell. They then eat the mussel. Sea stars can open mussels by pulling them apart with their sticky tube feet. 12 Marevision/age fotostock RM/Getty Images
15 The octopus is a tide pool predator. It cannot survive out of the water. It swims in the open ocean, but prefers life in the low tide zone. There, it feeds on crabs, snails, and clams. An octopus has more than one adaptation to help it catch prey. It can change color to look like the rocks or sand around it. It can squeeze its soft body into narrow cracks. The octopus hides and waits, staying alert for small animals passing by. Then it uses its tentacles to grab its prey. An octopus can hide in a tide pool by changing color to look like sand. Brenda Foran/Brenda Foran/Getty Images 13
16 It is good to visit tide pools and learn about the creatures that live there. Some people study tide pools. Some people collect tide pool creatures like sea urchins and mussels for food. Sometimes people and their pets walk through tide pools. Tide pool visitors have to be careful not to harm the creatures that live there. To help tide pool creatures survive, we should always remember to leave the tide pool as we found it. The creatures that live in tide pools often have to share their space with humans. 14 Doug Marshall/Getty Images

18 Compare Texts Read how the bluebird and the coyote got their colors. Bluebird and Coyote Did you know that the first bluebird was brown? Then, one night, the bluebird had a dream. Bored with brown? a voice asked. It s not too late to change. Just visit the blue lake. Is it far? asked Bluebird. Yes, very far, said the voice. But it s worth it. Bathe in the lake for five mornings and your feathers will turn blue. You will also be very clean. Is that all I have to do? asked Bluebird suspiciously. Oh, right, I almost forgot, said the voice. Sing the Ode to Blue while you bathe. How does it go? asked Bluebird. 16
19 Just make it up, said the voice. Bluebird did as he was told, and all was well until the fourth morning, when his feathers fell out. Can this be right? he asked, but there was nobody there to hear him. Or so he thought. To Bluebird s great relief, on the fifth morning when he came out of the lake he had beautiful blue feathers. Meanwhile, a coyote was watching. He had hoped to snack on Bluebird, but seeing those bright blue feathers gave him other ideas. How did you do that? asked Coyote. You were so drab, but now you look amazing. I want that color! Illustration: Kate Daubney Did I mention that Coyote was a dull green? Here s what you do, said Bluebird. 17
20 Coyote followed the instructions faithfully. His Ode to Blue went on for hours. On the fourth day, his fur fell out. And on the fifth day, it grew back, electric blue. Excellent color! said Coyote. Eager to see if his shadow was as beautiful as he was, Coyote whipped his head around. Bang! He ran straight into a tree branch! He fell to the ground and was soon covered in brown dust. Since that day, there has never been a blue coyote, but coyotes still howl a few verses of Ode to Blue at the end of the day. Just in case. Illustration: Kate Daubney Make Connections In Bluebird and Coyote, coyote turns blue. Would that be a useful adaptation for a coyote? ESSENTIAL QUESTION How does being able to change color help some tide pool animals? How does being brown help a coyote? TEXT TO TEXT 18
