Answer: C. Ecosystems can have different conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Adaptations are the changes that occur in the physiology, genome, morphology and the behavior of the organisms so as to support their survival in the adverse environmental conditions. An ecosystem is a biotic community where the living beings interact with their non-living environment. The abiotic (non-living) and biotic (living) factors may vary from ecosystem to ecosystem depending upon the location.

Certain traits adaptations can be seen in one ecosystem but not in another this occurs due to the fact that C. Ecosystems can have different conditions. Organisms adapt according to their environment. For example, a white coat over the hare species will help the population to remain insulated and protected against the predators in snow region but the same species when exposed to tropical forests will not be able to survive due to excess warm temperature and will be detected by the predators easily.
