    Acclimation: 2

    Acclimation, although not vitally important for this class, is important in determining whether an organism can live in a certain environment. It is defined as an organism's ability to adjust to gradual changes in it's environment. Changes in the environment include rising temperature, increased acidity in the ocean, or a change in sea level. Acclimation occurs in a fairly short period of time, compared to adaptation which involves mutations and changes over several generations. Simply, it is how well an organism can cope with environmental changes within its lifetime.
