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.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Debit to accounts receivable $9,800, Debit to credit card Discount $200 and credit to sales revenue $10,000

= 0.02 × 10,000

= 200

The account receivable = $10,000 - $200

= $9,800

From the foregoing, it is obvious that the sale revenue would not be affected by this transaction. SO, the sale revenue = $10,000
