Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Adaptation refers to a variation of form, function, or behavior that allows a species to better survive and reproduce in its environment. This increased fitness promotes the likelihood of a species' continued existence. Evolution is the process by which populations of organisms change over time, which can result in adaptation. Metabolism and homeostasis refer to the chemical reactions and internal regulatory processes within an organism, respectively, and are not necessarily related to a species' continued existence.
