Adaptations to environmental challenges

We refer to the molecular and physiological changes that organisms undergo to adapt, live, and reproduce in environments that are variable or modified by human intervention.

Living organisms are open systems that interact with their environment, modifying their physiology, behavior, and genetics in response to external challenges posed by harsh or rapidly changing environments due to natural or anthropogenic causes, such as climate change, pollution, resource scarcity, habitat loss, disease, and so on. The magnitude and speed of these responses is crucial to the life of individual organisms and the survival of the species.
