Overproduction - An organism gives birth to too many children
Genetic Variation - The offspring each have genetic differences in appearance, behavior, etc
Struggle to Survive - Offspring must fight in order to gain essential resources (food, water, mates, etc)
Successful Reproduction - Organism produces offspring with beneficial adaptations that aid in survival

Together the insulin and glucagon help maintain a state is known as homeostasis in which conditions inside the body remain steady.
<h3>
What is homeostasis?</h3>
Homeostasis refers to the mechanism of the body to maintain a stable internal environment instead of changes taking place in the external environment.
When blood sugar is too high, the pancreas secretes more insulin. When blood sugar levels drop, the pancreas releases glucagon to raise them.

1 - A ground level plant develops curling tendrils that wrap around other objects so it can "climb".
This is a species changing over time as it was originally a ground level plant but began to climb higher.
2 - Over many generations.
This is because diversity takes time and has to be integrated through generations; for instance, marriage. In a family, it becomes more diverse after the next generation as each generation is likely to marry someone of another ethnicity and allow the family tree to become more diverse.
3 - Mutate or Survive
It depends on what it means by mutate - develop a mutation to make it adaptable? If that's the case, then mutations within the DNA would be a result of adaptation and increase survival. Otherwise, survive is the obvious answer as adaption allows for species to move around and live longer.
Hope this helps!
