Tall height is an adaptation of sunflowers to help them compete for sunlight. They have this adaptation because they need sunlight (a resource) to survive.
Being tall
Could you spot this cheetah from far away? This is an adaptation to have a better chance to sneak up on food like you to survive. (Jk...not)
Camouflage
Did you know storing fat is an adaptation? Animals that can store fat are better insulated and have a better chance of surviving a long winter.
Fatness
