Adapt5
- Acclimatisation societies were voluntary associations in the 19th and 20th centuries that encouraged the introduction of non-native species in various places around the world, in the hope that they would acclimatise and adapt to their new environments. (wikipedia.org)
- However, Wallace pointed out that there was the possibility that there were variations among individuals and so some could have the ability to adapt to new environments. (wikipedia.org)
- Saint-Hilaire subscribed to the Lamarckian idea that humans and animals could be forced to adapt to new environments. (wikipedia.org)

Adaptation2
- Humans may respond to environmental stress in four different ways: adaptation, developmental adjustment, acclimatization, and cultural responses. (erasingdavid.com)
- An adaptation is a genetically based trait that has evolved because it helps living things survive and reproduce in a given environment. (erasingdavid.com)

Exertion1
- These factors include high physical exertion levels/duration/infrequent hydration breaks, high environmental temperatures, high humidity which decreases evaporation, low sweat levels (dehydration), lack of heat acclimatization, heat retaining clothing and protective equipment, and physical conditions which make certain individuals more susceptible to heat illness.
