Adaptations are traits that the organisms have that allow them to survive in the environment in which they live.

All adaptations are the result of natural selection, which means that organisms with this trait had better chances to live long enough to reproduce, so the trait was passed down to the next generations.

A few adaptations of the great white sharks are the following:

• Ampullae of Lorenzini, are special organs that allow sharks to detect electromagnetic fields produced by animals.

,

• The capacity to maintain a body temperature warmer than the surrounding water, allows them to hunt fast prey.
