What is an inherited characteristic that increases an organism's chance of survival.?
Adaptation c==3
How do adaptations contribute to fitness?
adaptation increases the fitness of those who have it over those that dont.
What are the genetic definitions of fitness and adaptation?
The genetic definition of fitness and adaptation is when a given organism survives long enough to have an offspring. The offspring usually have another offspring and the chain continues.
Distinguish between obligatory and discretionary adaptation of a product?
obligatory adaptation occurs when a marketer if force to make minimal changes or make modification to it product design before it can gain entry to local country where as discretionary adaptation also referred to as voluntary adaptation is changes that is made by the marketer by choice to satisfy new market. DAP
What is the relationship between sensory adaptation and negative adaptation?
the relationship between sensory adaptation and negative adaptation?
Distinguish between fitness and adaptation Give an example of each?
Fitness is "the degree of suitability for a particular environment. Genetic fitness is relative contribution by organisms of a particular genotype to the next generation". Adaptation is "An anatomical structure, physiological process, or behavioral trait that evolved by natural selection and improves an organism's ability to survive and leave descendants.
What is the difference between fitness and adaptation?
fitness is working out and getting stronger and adaptations is adapting to the weight you are. so you dont want to change anything.

What is adaptation and how is it related to natural selection?
Adaptation is changes in the overall physiological makeup of a population of organisms that bestow increased reproductive fitness on the population. Natural selection causes adaptation by favouring variants with increased reproductive fitness over less reproductively successful variants.
