Two friends were talking about adaptations. They each had different ideas about what happens when an organism's environment changes so that it is very different from the organism's existing environment. This is what they said: Leslie: "I don't think individual organisms can adapt to changes in their environments." Jordan: "I think individual organisms can adapt to changes in their environments if they need to." Whom do you most agree with?

Is this open ended or long response? Personally I agree with Jordan because many creatures are highly adaptive. Humans only need about 3 days to get used to a different climate. Many organisms deal with changes in their environment like rainy and dry seasons or differing temperatures. On the other had you could agree with Leslie but only if the environmental changes were major enough to wipe out the populace. If rodents found around a river bank suddenly experienced a change like a flood many would die.
