Question
What is the relation between adaptation and evolution?
Answer
Adaptation is a process by which an organism becomes better suited to its environment through natural selection or other mechanisms. Evolution, on the other hand, is a broader process by which species of organisms change over time, including the development of new adaptations. Adaptation is one of the key mechanisms driving evolution, as those individuals with adaptations that are better suited to their environment are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing on their advantageous traits to their offspring.
