Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When an organism of a species is born with a variation in a trait that gives it an advantage in its environment, we call that trait an adaptation.
A
true
B
false
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The idea of natural selection is that traits that can be passed down allow organisms to adapt to the environment better than other organisms of the same species. This enables better survival and reproduction compared with other members of the species, leading to evolution.

Detailed explanation-2: -When an organism of a species is born with a variation in a trait that gives it an advantage in its environment, we call that trait an adaptation.

Detailed explanation-3: -a. adaptations arise in response to the needs or organisms to survive and reproduce, then those that survive will have an increase in frequency of the adaptation within the population over time.

Detailed explanation-4: -Natural selection explains how organisms in a population develop traits that allow them to survive and reproduce. Natural selection means that traits that offer an advantage will most likely be passed on to offspring; individuals with those traits have a better chance of surviving.

Detailed explanation-5: -“Adaptation is defined as the process where a species or an organism gradually becomes better acclimated to its environment.” Adaption refers to the behavioral or physical attributes of an animal that helps them survive better in its ecosystem.
