Adaptation: an adjustment

Adaptation is the adjustment of organisms to their

environment to improve their chances of survival. It is the
modification or alteration of the varying physiological and
psychological systems of living. Adaptation plays a major role
in human evolution. However, before evolution was generated
amongst human beings, Homo sapiens have not always
resided at the apex of the food chain. Our predecessors faced
astounding impediments throughout their physical
environments before this modern age came to our doorsteps.
Humans used to be highly vulnerable to illnesses, physical
harm, and wild scavengers. Prehistoric hominids had both
dangers and possibilities as a consequence of environmental
change, which factually represents one of the rising concerns
to survival.
