An organisms fitness is it's ability to survive and reproduce. Adaptations help an organism do so. According to Darwin, natural selection plays a big part in the adaptations that help an animal survive. Natural selection is basically "the best qualities win and reproduce". Over time, the qualities that survived become adaptations, shaping themselves to the changing environment. Because the best qualities lead to successful adaptations, the "favorable" organism will survive and reproduce, increasing its fitness.
Animals survive in their environment by adapting physical characteristics, behaviors, or physiological processes that help them find food, avoid predators, and reproduce successfully. This can include camouflage, mimicry, hibernation, migration, or specialized traits like strong beaks for cracking nuts or keen eyesight for hunting. Ultimately, survival is a result of the animal's ability to meet its basic needs and thrive in its specific habitat.
Camouflage, agility, and the ability to detect and avoid predators are behaviors of the reptile's prey that may help them survive and reproduce. This allows them to blend in with their environment, quickly escape from danger, and minimize their risk of being eaten.
Adaptations are changes in an organism's physical or behavioral characteristics that help it survive and reproduce in its environment. These changes can be gradual over many generations through natural selection, allowing individuals with beneficial traits to pass them on to their offspring. Adaptations increase an organism's fitness by enhancing its ability to thrive in its specific habitat.
For animals to respond to their environment means that they adjust their behavior, physiology, or morphology based on external factors such as food availability, temperature, predators, or other environmental conditions. This ability to respond allows them to adapt and survive in their surroundings.

"Fitness refers to an organism's capability to survive and reproduce in its environment. It is a measure of how well an individual's traits contribute to its reproductive success and overall survival."
Fitness
An inherited characteristic that increases an organism's ability to survive and reproduce in its specific environment is called an adaptation. Adaptations help organisms better suit their environment and increase their chances of survival and reproduction.

Darwin called the ability of an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment fitness.
the ability to survive until it reproduces
Biological fitness is the ability of an individual to survive and reproduce in a given environment, passing on its genes to the next generation. It is a measure of how well an organism is adapted to its environment in terms of reproductive success. Organisms with higher fitness are more likely to pass on their genes, shaping the genetic makeup of future populations.
The individual who possesses traits that enhance their ability to survive and reproduce in their specific environment is most likely to be successful in an evolutionary sense. This could include traits such as adaptability, strong immune system, efficient reproduction, and effective social or cooperative behaviors.
Yes, twins of the same gender can reproduce just like any other individual. Being a twin does not affect a person's ability to reproduce.
Performance is a function of the interaction between an individual's motivation, ability, and environment.
