The central idea of "The Mysterious Olm" is the olm has
adapted especially well to its environment. Find text
evidence and details that support the central idea in the
excerpt below. Write the text evidence and supporting
details on the lines below.
Like other cave salamanders, the olm survives on a diet
of insects, snails, and crabs. But over 20 million years of
living in dark caves, it has become mostly blind. It does
have eyes that are almost microscopic, but they stop
developing early in its life. Gradually, layers of skin
grow over them. But the olm doesn't need its eyes to
locate its prey. Instead, it relies on its super keen senses
of smell and hearing.
The olm's skin is pale pink and translucent. Underneath,
the shapes of its internal organs can be seen. Scientists
think the olm's skin may also be a source of informa-
tion. It may feel tiny vibrations in the air and water
that help the olm sense the presence of moving things.
Central Idea: The olm has adapted especially well to its
environment.
