The change caused by genes that involve the insertion of a foreign gene into an organism to change its phenotype is called genetic transformation.

Genetic transformation is the process by which the genetic makeup of an organism is altered to change its phenotype or its characteristic trait. An organism after the transformation is referred to as a transgenic organism.

The foreign DNA penetrates the host genome by the medium of vectors. Vectors are the DNA carriers that permit the insertion of foreign DNA to pass to the host genome.

Such transformations are often performed in laboratory conditions while operating on tissue culture. It aims at improving the yield of a crop, developing a better trait, or developing a mechanism to protect the crop from pests or insects.

To know more about genetic transformation, refer to the following link:

Answer:

Organisms better adapted to the environment  

Explanation:

According to the evolutionary theory proposed by Charles Darwin in "The Origin of Species" (1859), the fittest organisms are those that are better suited to the environment (i.e., have a higher fitness). These organisms have more chances to survive and reproduce, and thereby they have also more chances to leave their genes in the next generation. This process is the central concept of evolution, and it is called natural selection. In consequence, evolution produces phenotypic changes or 'adaptations' that are inherited by organisms over generations, and certain traits are lost during this process.
