Adaptation refers to both the current state of being adapted and to the dynamic evolutionary process that leads to the adaptation. Adaptations enhance the fitness and survival of individuals. Organisms face a succession of environmental challenges as they grow and develop and are equipped with an adaptive plasticity as the phenotype of traits develop in response to the imposed conditions. The developmental norm of reaction for any given trait is essential to the correction of adaptation as it affords a kind of biological insurance or resilience to varying environments.

Adaptation is referred as the characteristics present in living organisms which enable them to survive and reproduce.Adaptations can be morphological,ecological,Behavioral, anatomical,etc.
For example Camels-They are adapted to live in harsh climates,they have no sweat glands,they have concentrated urine which help them to prevent loss of water,etc.Adaptations takes place in thousand years while evolution in millions.Specific characteristics helps a predator and also a prey for example a lion can hide on grass and have a clear view of the prey.suppose the prey is a deer it have adaptation like rapid motion.
