Adaptation

A trait that helps an organism survive in its environment

Real World Example

In history, early people had to adapt to their environments to survive, like developing tools for hunting or clothing for warmth. These adaptations were crucial as they responded to the challenges of finding food, shelter, and protection from harsh climates. Without these changes, early humans might not have survived or evolved into modern societies. Today, adaptation is still important as people adjust to new technologies, climate changes, and different cultures. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, many people adapted by learning to work or study from home, showing how adaptation helps us manage and thrive amidst challenges.
