Cross-Curricular Reading Comprehension Worksheets: D-8 of 36
In the wild, it often comes down to predator and predator and predator prey. There is the hunter and there is the hunted. Organisms want to stay alive. They hide or escape from animals who would like to eat them. So how do they do it? They adapt to their environment.
One very helpful adaptation is called camoufl age. You may have been surprised at some time by an animal that used camoufl age. It blended into its surroundings so well that you nearly missed seeing it. Its coloring, markings or other physical features allowed it to blend in to the area around it.
Animals use camoufl age to fool a predator. The hidden animal is not seen when a predator scans an area looking for food. Wild goats, for example, have coats that make them look invisible among rocks. A baby giraffe’s coat helps it hide among the grass and trees. A chameleon is a lizard that will change colors depending on the surface it is on.
Camoufl age often works the other way around, too. Predators can use camoufl age to trap their prey. A predator can attack unexpectedly an animal it wants to eat. The prey animal doesn’t see danger because the predator blends into the habitat. A leopard’s spotted coat helps it blend in to the background and sneak up on its prey.
Another popular adaptation is mimicry. Mimicry is when an animal has the physical characteristics that makes it look like another animal or a plant. Some moths look like a wasp. Predators that don’t like wasps will think the moth is a wasp and not eat it.
Answer the following questions based on the reading passage. Don’t forget to go back to the passage whenever necessary to fi nd or confi rm your answers.
1) What is the function of camoufl age in the wild?

2) How do animals use mimicry to protect themselves?

3) What’s the difference between camoufl age and mimicry?

4) If you were a wild animal, would you rather have the ability to mimic another animal or the ability to camoufl age yourself? Why?

5) If a chameleon was on a green leaf, what color do you think it would be?

Cross-Curricular Reading Comprehension Worksheets: D-1 of 36
The four cardinal directions are shown on a magnetic compass. They are north, south, east and west. The same four directions are also on a map. If you learn the cardinal directions, they can help you fi nd where you are on a map.
A compass rose is a printed symbol that shows these directions. It can help you understand maps. A compass rose is usually drawn as art, with designs and details to make it beautiful. This is especially true on very old maps.
Another way to identify your exact location is to use lines of latitudeand longitude. They are both imaginary lines that circle around Earth. Lines of latitude circle the Earth running east and west. Lines of longitude circle the Earth running north and south. Together, these lines form squares. It’s like the lines you see on graph paper. If you look closely on most maps, you will see this graph paper printed on top of the map. If you look even closer, you will see numbers written by the lines. These numbers help to give addresses to places on Earth. The address for each place is known as its absolute location.
The equator is the main line of latitude that circles Earth. It is the equator is the main line of latitude that circles Earth. It is the equatorsame distance from the North Pole as it is from the South Pole. The equator is the starting point for measuring degrees of latitude. Each line of latitude is marked with a number that says how many degrees north or south of the equator it is.
The prime meridian is the main line of longitude that circles Earth. It is the starting point for measuring lines of longitude. Each line of longitude is marked with a number that says how many degrees east or west of the prime meridian it is. You can accurately identify absolute, or exact, locations on Earth. You determine the degrees that identify the latitude and longitude lines that cross closest to your location.
Answer the following questions based on the reading passage. Don’t forget to go back to the passage whenever necessary to fi nd or confi rm your answers.
1) What is the purpose of a compass rose?

2) What is a line of latitude? ___________________
