Description
Microbes are tiny organisms that live deep in the ocean, on glaciers, and even in your own body! How do they survive in all these different environments? They adapt! Microbe Adaptations: Glowing Lights, Hot Vents, and Large Numbers introduces young scientists ages 5 to 8 to different types of microbes that have developed characteristics that help them survive and thrive! How? Through natural selection, which happens as survival traits are passed down through generations. Fun illustrations, photos, glossary, poem, and a hands-on activity make this a great introduction to life science!
