Question from a GCSE Biology Quiz on Adaptations for Survival.
What is the benefit of camouflage to an animal?
Helps it to thermoregulate
Ensures that it blends in with the surroundings
Makes sure that the predator or prey cannot see it as easily
Helps to cool it down
You should have quickly discounted the first and fourth options, the difficulty is then choosing between the two remaining possibilities. This question is about the benefit (in other words, the end result) of camouflage.
The advantage of camouflage is that it enables an animal to blend into its surroundings. That's not the end of the story. The benefit of this to a predator is that it can get closer to its prey with less chance of being spotted, giving the predator a greater chance of a successful hunt. If the prey is camouflaged, it is harder for a predator to spot it, increasing its survival chances.
The correct answer is therefore option 3. Always remember to think about what the question is actually asking you.
