Adaptation is one of the basic phenomena of Biology.[1 It is the process, which takes place under natural selection, whereby an organism becomes better suited to its habitat.[2] Also, the term may refer to some characteristic which stands out as being especially significant in the organism's survival. For example, the adaptation of horses' teeth to the grinding of grass, or their capacity to run fast to escape predators.
