Chameleons Changing Colour Class 7

Chameleons Changing Colour? Class 7

Answer:

Chameleons can change their skin colour to blend in with their surroundings, or when they are angry or sense danger. This colour change is due to special cells in their skin called chromatophores that can expand or contract to show different pigments.

Is this change reversible?

Yes, it is reversible.

Chameleons can change their colour back and forth depending on their environment, mood, or temperature. The process does not create a new substance; it only changes the arrangement of pigments in their skin.

Type of change:

  1. Physical change (since no new substance is formed and the process is reversible)
