Adaptation is the process by which a species becomes fitted to its environment through natural selection. Learn about different types of adaptations, such as physiological, structural, and behavioral, and how they vary across organisms and environments.

Learn how adaptations can be structural, physiological, or behavioral, and see examples of each type. Structural adaptations change the physical features of an organism, physiological adaptations alter body chemistry or metabolism, and behavioral adaptations modify how an organism acts or interacts with its environment.

Adaptations can take many forms: a behavior that allows better evasion of predators, a protein that functions better at body temperature, or an anatomical feature that allows the organism to access a valuable new resource — all of these might be adaptations.
All adaptations help organisms survive in their ecological niches. The adaptive traits may be structural, behavioral or physiological. Structural adaptations are physical features of an organism, such as shape, body covering, armament, and internal organization.
