That results in the evolution of more and more organisms that are better fitted to their environments. Each living thing is adapted to its way of life in a general way, but each is adapted especially to its own distinct class. A plant, for example, depends upon its roots to fix itself ...

To survive and reproduce, all living organisms must adjust to conditions imposed on them by their environments. An organism's environment includes everything impinging upon it, as well as everything that is affected by that organism. Conformity between an organism and its environment constitutes what...
The property or quality that distinguishes living organisms from dead organisms and inanimate matter, manifested in functions such as metabolism, growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli or adaptation to the environment originating from within the organism.生命活的有机物区别于死的有机物...
The adaptive responses of living organisms to heavy metals include physiological, anatomical and ecological mechanisms, some of which are highly conserved in nature. These adaptive mechanisms enable certain species to survive even in the presence of high concentrations of these toxic elements....

Adaptation, in biology, the process by which a species becomes fitted to its environment; it is the result of natural selection’s acting upon heritable variation over several generations. Organisms are adapted to their environments in a variety of ways,

In these environments many microorganisms are adapted to high temperatures. Moreover to survive in these environments, living organisms have developed various strategies to protect themselves against toxic molecules such as H2S and heavy metals. 展开 ...
In summary, culture alone may be able to rescue a population, prevent or mitigate population bottlenecks, or extend the survival time of a declining population during which true evolutionary rescue may be possible in a way rare (or unique) for large, long-living organisms. ...
