Explanation:

About Behavioral Adaptations ! Statement 2 is incorrect: All organisms have adaptations that help them survive and thrive. Some adaptations are structural. Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism like the bill on a bird or the fur on a bear. Other adaptations are behavioral. Having striped fur for camouflage on the female one to attract its male counterpart for reproduction is a structural adaptation.

Statement 1 and 3 are correct: Behavioral adaptations are the things organisms do to survive such as migration, hibernation, camouflage, nocturnal and boreal type of living.

Statement 4 is incorrect: The animals which live in hot and dry climates adapt some structural or physical changes to survive in such time of climate. To prevent water loss from the body their bodies are reduced in size.
