Correct answer: (B) Adaptation
Explanation
Adaptation is how an organism becomes suited, through inherited features, to live and thrive in a particular place.
Competition is the struggle between organisms for shared resources, not fitness to a habitat.
Addition is not a biological term for suitability to an environment.
Participation is not a term describing an organism's fitness to its surroundings.
Adaptations may be structural, physiological or behavioural and arise through natural selection.
A camel's water conservation and a cactus's spines are classic examples of adaptation.
