Organism Physiology Paper Crocodiles


Mother Nature diversity in regards to the animal kingdom is amazing. Throughout the

Centuries, there have been changes to the globe and therefore to the habitat of the humans,

Animals, plants and all of the infinite organisms that live in our planet. However, even though

there have been changes, the living organisms also have adapted to their new environment by

changing their genetic composition and acquiring new characteristics that allow these organisms

to survive and to get well adapted to the prevailing environmental conditions.

One of the best adapted living organisms from the prehistoric era to the present history

period are believed to be the crocodiles or alligators, who are considered the cousins of the

dinosaurs. According to the website About.com, there have been 200 million years of crocodile

evolution. Crocodiles are believed to be the offshoot of the archosaurs, which were the “ruling

lizards” of the early to middle Triassic period. These species resembled one another in many

physiological features, for examples the shape and musculature of their deadly jaws. However, it

has been only 65 million years ago that crocodiles developed their well-known traits: stubby

legs, sleek bodies, and marine lifestyles.



One of the most distinctive features of the modern day crocodiles is their elongated snout.

The size of their head is typically one seventh of the total body length, and the shape of the head

is intimately associated with the way crocodiles position themselves in the water. They usually

have a minimum exposure posture in the water, making it easy for them to prey on other animals

and even humans. The “minimum exposure” posture has played an important key throughout

121920044640500their evolution.
