Adaptation is a process where something or someone becomes suited or used to its habitat. This could take awhile or not a lot of time at all! Adaptation could be something bad too.
In the book "Night" there are a TON of examples of how the people become adapted to all the negative things that happen in the concentration camps. Watching someone die in front of your face and then you being okay with it and not doing anything to help them not get killed or not helping them survive shocks me. But I suppose the Jews were so used to seeing death everyday that the only thing they could concentrate on was keeping themselves alive and healthy.
Animals can also adapt to their surroundings! For instance if its cold outside the migrate or hibernate to a warmer place and until it starts to warm up again. Or some birds have bigger beaks but other birds around the world could have smaller beaks because of the different uses of their beaks.
i pretty much agree with you. i think that adaption is pretty much getting used to the environment that you are in.
