Learning Objectives
Life in Water is the Aquatic Science STEM curriculum Lesson 4 that includes relevant science topics in 13 videos: What is a species? What is an adaptation? What adaptations do fish and other aquatic animals possess to survive in an aquatic habitat? How do specific adaptations provide survival advantages to a particular species? Name some adaptations of different fish species in Texas? How do fish swim? How do fish see, smell, hear, taste and feel? Do fish have other senses that we don’t have?
