Solution

An example of an adaptation is: "Polar bear fur is better camouflage on ice flows than brown bear fur." This is an adaptation because it is a specific trait that has developed over time to help the polar bear survive in its specific environment. The white fur blends in with the ice and snow, making the polar bear less visible to its prey.
