Adaptation is when a plant or animal make modifications to their body to survive in an altered environment. For example, the snow foxes' fur changes depending on the seasons. Another example would be blueberries. They develop thorns in order to protect the berries the plant grows.
Pretty much all plants adapt. If you pay attention, when you put a plant next to the window, and when there's no sunlight shining on it, you should notice that it will start to lean toward the sun.

Answer:
Viruses are neither prokaryotes nor eukaryotes because they lack all of the characteristics of living things except for the ability to reproduce. They are considered parasitic because they cannot live or replicate without a living host. Viruses consist of genetic material (either DNA or RNA), a protein coat, and sometimes a lipid envelope surrounding the protein coat. They have no function except to reproduce.
<span>Natural selection is likely when there are stronger selection pressures. For example, a perpetual selection pressure is the fact that organisms have to compete for food and resources, meaning the best adapted ones survive. However, a stronger selection pressure may cause natural selection to occur more obviously. An example of this is when the number of white peppered moths decreased during industrialization in England due to the soot collecting on the trees. The change in population was very fast and obvious.</span>
