1.A species can adapt over the course of many generations

2.A single organisms can adapt throughout its lifetime.

A. 1 only

B. Neither 1 nor 2

C. 2 only

D. both 1 and 2

A species can adapt over the course of many generations and a single organisms can adapt throughout its lifetime statements are true about adaptations.

Option: D

Explanation:

A shift in environmental factors also causes the extinction. Many species have adaptations when situations change which enable them to survive and produce offspring, while others do not. If the climate is changing gradually enough, animals, over several generations, often develop the required adaptations.

Within one lifetime, a single organism can not alter its physiological or behavioural features but organisms of any species can adapt over a long period of time. Natural selection contributes to adaptation, which is to say to a population controlled by species that are anatomically, behaviorally and physiologically well adapted for survival and reproduction in a particular environment.
