∙ 14y agoDarwin coined the term "survival of the fittest," that is to say, those who are most adapted to their current surroundings will live, while those not well adapted will not. The biggest thing to consider is that environments are constantly changing. For example, a prairie may seem like a prairie, but some years there are too many hawks and not enough mice eat, and other years there are too many mice and not enough hawks to eat them.
The world is changing rapidly, with natural changes as well as human changes (deforestation and global warming to name a few). Organisms need to change, or adapt, to match these environmental changes. Some organisms can change or "evolve" to match the environmental changes, and they will be able to continue surviving. The ones that will not change fast enough will not be able to survive, and will become extinct.
