(A)An adaptation is a characteristic that helps an animal survive in its habitat. All animals must be able to obtain food and water, protect themselves from harm, withstand the climate, and reproduce young so the species doesn't become extinct. ... Without their adaptations, the species could not thrive in that environment.
GIRAFFE-That ability – coupled with the tongue's impressive reach and its tough skin – allows giraffes to selectively browse, plucking leaves from among the nasty thorns brandished by many of its preferred food trees, such as acacias.
Answer:
Any population in a given environment contains a variety of available, inheritable genetic traits. ... In a population, there is a cause-and-effect relationship between the variation of traits and the probability that specific organisms will be able to survive and reproduce.

Since no table is given, I will explain how genes are inherited. After Mendel’s discoveries were
accepted, scientists realized that traits passed to offspring were the result
of genes being passed from parents to offspring. This is an example of the law
of inheritance. The genes that are passed down from the parents are being
shared by the offspring. It can be shown if the trait is recessive or dominant
from the parents’ gene. <span>Chromosomes
are inherited from the parents. One chromosome from each of 23 pairs came from
each of the parents. The two chromosomes of a pair (except for the sex
chromosomes) contain the same genes, but the genes have small differences. The
X and Y Chromosomes determine the organism’s sex. One chromosome pair - the sex
chromosomes - is unique. Typically females have two X chromosomes and males
have an X and a Y. Mothers always pass an X chromosome on to their children.
Whether the father passes on his X chromosome (leading to a pair of X
chromosomes) or his Y chromosome (making a mixed set) determines your sex. </span>
