Adaptive Phenotypic Plasticity
Description
Adaptive Phenotypic Plasticity refers to the ability of an organism to adjust its phenotype—observable characteristics or traits—based on environmental cues or changes. Instead of relying solely on genetic changes across generations, organisms exhibiting adaptive phenotypic plasticity can alter their physical, physiological, or behavioral traits within their lifetime in response to environmental conditions. This flexibility allows them to enhance their chances of survival and reproduction in variable or unpredictable environments.
