- Living things are compatible with the environment in
which they live
Every living thing, whether on land or in the air, is perfectly
compatible with its habitat. This is how they are created. Various perfect
systems secure the nutrition, protection and reproduction of living things.
That is to say, each living thing is specially designed in accordance with
its habitat.
The organs and the lifestyles of living things are all compatible with
the conditions in their environment. For instance, birds have perfect
wings to fly in the sky. Fish have specially created gills with which to
breathe under water. If they had lungs like us, they would drown.
- Living things are compatible with other living things with
which they co-exist
Some birds and insects contribute to the reproduction of plants.
That means that, although they are unaware of it, they help the growth of
plants. For instance, while visiting one flower after another, bees carry
pollen. Thanks to this process, plants are able to reproduce. In some
cases, animals perform actions that are beneficial to other animals.
Cleaning fish, for instance, clean micro-organisms off the skins of big
fish and thus provide the basis for a healthy life for them. This is another
form of compatibility.
