Natural sources of water, such as lakes and river are almost non-existent or are seasonal. So, animals derive water from desert plants such as cactus. Some insects also tap fluids such as saps and nectars from various parts of the plants. ...
Herein, we identified candidate genes of adaptation to hallucinogenic cactus in Native Andean populations with a long history of shamanic practices. We used genome-wide expression data from the cactophilic flyexposed to a hallucinogenic columnar cactusalso consumed by humans, to identify ortholog genes...
Cactus adaptations. The secret to the superior endurance of cacti lies in their adaptations. Over millions of years, through natural selection, only the strongest and best adapted species survived. As you know, it is very dry in the desert. Plants that adapt to this are known as xerophyte...
hallucinogenic columnar cactus,also consumed by humans, to identify ortholog genes exhibiting adaptive footprints of alkaloid tolerance. Genomic analyses in human populations revealed a suite of ortholog genes evolving under recent positive selection in indigenous populations of the Central Andes. Our results...
So, yes, adaption and adaptation may seem similar, but they have distinct meanings and uses. Adaption is when something has been changed by its environment. Adaptation is changing or updating something to make it better or more functional in a different setting. I hope that helps!

托福阅读背景知识：Plant adaptation to the desert 智 课 网 托 福 备 考 资 料
This species illustrates how ancestral pest lineages on wild host plants constitute important sources of biological control agents, and information contributes to our understanding regarding the history and sources of pest lineages. Finally, we present the cactus moth ( Cactoblastis cactorum ), an ...
