It is very simple: 1  Evolution is âdescent with modificationâ Populations of organisms change over the course of generations. 2  Adaptation is the result of one of the means of modification. Adaptation is the result of natural selection. Adaptations are the designs in plants and animals: eyes for seeing, oxidative phosphorylation for generating energy, flagella for movement, lungs for breathing, etc. There are other ways to modify populations over generations.
