Trouble is "adaption" doesn't cover it. We're not talking about same generation changes, you're thinking of Lamarckism. (Long discredited.) Evolution is multigenerational and involves random mutation which rarely (but regularly over large enough samples of generations and/or time) out competes the status quo.
