Phenotypic adaptation involves changes in the body of an organism in response to genetic mutation or certain environmental changes. These responsive adjustments occur in an organism in order to cope with environmental conditions present in their natural habitats.
For example, desert plants have thick cuticles and sunken stomata on the surface of their leaves to prevent transpiration. Similarly, elephants have long ears that act as thermoregulators.

Phenotypic adaptations are acquired non-genetic changes in individuals such as physiological modification, acclimatisation or behavioural changes.
Example: If a person has never been to a place at a high altitude, then on visiting such a place, he or she may have altitude sickness because the body does not get adequate oxygen. However, he or she gradually gets acclimatised and stops experiencing altitude sickness.
