More About acclimatization

Acclimatization helps all living things. It is how they change to fit their home. Some animals do this fast, while others take time. It is like how we wear coats in winter and shorts in summer.

In our lives, we see acclimatization too. When we go to a new place, we learn how to act. We might feel hot or cold and change what we wear. This helps us feel good.

In the future, we will learn more. Scientists want to know how all life changes. This helps us keep our world safe and strong.
