Ans.

Fitness can be described as the ability of an organism to survive and reproduce in its environment. Adaptation can be defined as the process, by which organisms acquire useful traits that make them better suited to their environment.

Generally, adaptations lead to increase in fitness of organisms (or make them fit) that leads to increase in their survival chances. When organisms become able to adapt the new, changing environment, they are better able to live and reproduce.

Thus, fitness and adaptations are related to each other.

Helen [10]
Table 1: The horizontal pulling forces (F) and resulting acceleration (a) for the cart.



The cart experiences no motion when there is 0.1 N of horizontal force, so F=0 in this case. When one uses Newton's Second Law to find the acceleration caused by each force, it becomes clear that every row in the chart represents a horizontal force of approximately F=20 N. The best fit for the missing value is F=-30N.
