Which Description Applies to Individuals Who are Well Adapted for a Particular

Question

Which description applies to individuals who are well adapted for a particular environment?
A) They may or may not be equally fit in another environment.
B) They are the best fit for all other environments.
C) They are at a disadvantage in other environments.
D) They will mutate to become fit in other environments.

Accepted Answer

Individuals that are well adapted for a particular environment are better suited for surviving and reproducing in that specific environment, but this does not guarantee their fitness and success in other environments. Adaptations are generally specific to certain environments and can be advantageous only within these environments. Thus, being well adapted in one environment does not necessarily mean that an organism will be equally well adapted in another environment.
