The classic example of adaptations is the finches living in the Galapagos Islands.
The competition for resources leads to adaptation because the limited resources forces organism to learn how to survive with what they have in their environment.
The classic example of adaptations is the finches living in the Galapagos Islands. Finches typically are seed eaters but the finches in the islands have adapted to feed on insects, fruits, seeds and even blood from molting birds' feathers! If the ancestral finch had remained unchanged there would have been intense competition for the same food, habitat, and other resources. The adaptations allow more of the finches to survive using resources not being used by other species.
It's the other way around: natural selection leads to adaptation. It does so by filtering out less fit variants while promoting fitter variants. 'Fit', in this context, refers to the average number of fertile offspring.

Adaptation enables organisms because it reduces the copitition for food and resources since each animal adapted to diffrent things. this is a simpler way to put it.
Competition
Evolution can exist without competition. Competition is what gives evolution a "direction"; it's what guides evolution. Note that there's no literal competition. Individuals within a population don't go out of their way to trick one another out of resources. It's simply that some of these individuals are better at gathering resources, and at surviving, and at breeding, than other individuals. Which makes that their genes are more likely to make it to the next generation than the genes of the others.
The struggle that occurs between organisms for food and water and energy when resources are limited is called competition. Competition can kill animals.
Competition between members of the species.
When carrying capacity of an area is reached, there is competition for all resources. This can include food, water, land, and air.
extinction
Limited resources
competition for resources, leading to natural selection favoring individuals better suited to acquiring those resources. This can result in adaptations in the population that maximize resource acquisition and use efficiency. Over time, this process can lead to ecological balance or extinction if resources become too limited.

imperfect competition - novanet
the competition for resources is my monkey. :))) lol its the real answer..
Yes, competition occurs when organisms strive to obtain and utilize the same limited resources in their environment. This can include resources such as food, water, shelter, mates, and territory. The competition can lead to an increase in fitness for individuals that are better adapted to acquire and utilize these resources, while those that are less successful may experience reduced fitness.

Competition
The cons of overpopulation of deer are so many. This will cause competition for resources which might lead to death of some of the other animals that share similar resources with deer.
Competition is a struggle between animals and plants to survive when resources are scarce. Therefore, when resources are too rare, animals will end up killing their own kind to survive. This can sometimes lead to massive population drops over a wide area.
