Answer 1

- Monkeys’ prehensile tail — Structural. (A physical body part that enables grasping branches.)
- Moose mating calls — Behavioral. (A learned/instinctive action used to find/attract mates.)
- Whales’ thick blubber — Structural. (A physical layer of fat that insulates against cold.)
- Humans’ five toes on each foot — Structural. (An anatomical feature that aids balance.)
- Many birds migrating south for the winter — Behavioral. (A seasonal movement pattern for survival and finding food.)
