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.

Adaptation c==3
How do adaptations contribute to fitness?
adaptation increases the fitness of those who have it over those that dont.
Are adaptation genetic?
Yes, physical adaptions are genetic, it's called evolution.
How does adaptation affect the evolution of a species?
It is, in fact, evolution (shifts in the frequencies of traits in populations) that causes adaptation (when these shifts lead to increased fitness).
Distinguish between fitness and adaptation?
Fitness is a measure of the average reproductive alacrity of a particular variant, lineage or population.Adaptation is a genomic change that increases fitness for the variants or lineages carrying the change.
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 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.
