An organism adapting to its environment leads it to be more ‘equipped’ for survival.
Competition is when other species fight for the same resources that another species needs. Also, it would produce offspring with these adaptations.
An example (to help you better understand);
A blue jay has great eyesight, strong wings, and sharp beak. (Better adapted organism) Another blue jay has great eyesight, weak wings, and dull beak. (The competitor/unadapted)
Both birds find the same food source and are now competing for it. The first bird has sharp beams, which is better for breaking, and ‘chomping’ the seeds/food. The second bird would struggle to consume its food (seed) unless it’s worms.
So which one is better adapted? The first blue jay.
And i hope this helped show how competition can be reduced.
Most bacteria are heterotrophic decomposers, which means they depend on other organisms for food and feed on dead matter.
Well a mutation is like a change in the DNA and so if there was a mutation in the antártica fish, something in their genes would change. If that mutation has a positive effect on it, then that mutation would be passed down to the generations of fish, helping that fish with its survival or something
