Detailed explanation-1: -If organisms cannot adapt to the changes in their environment, they may move to another location. If they will not move, the species may become threatened, or extinct.
Detailed explanation-2: -Individuals with characteristics that are not well-suited to their environment either die without reproducing or leave few offspring and are said to have low fitness. This difference in rates of survival and reproduction is called survival of the fittest.
Detailed explanation-3: -This happens by the process of natural selection. By natural selection, the nature of the species gradually changes to become adapted to the niche. If a species becomes very well adapted to its environment, and if the environment does not change, species can exist for a very long time before they become extinct.
