Answer 3

its actually adaptation when a species adapt to their environment. when evolution occurs species inherit different traits according to how well the previous generation has adapted to their environment. if the previous generation adapted well, the trait passes on. then through natural selection, the offsprings that adapted well live longer and others die which is exactly what natural selection is according to the Darwinian Theory.
