correct option: c

The inheritance of traits from parents to offspring is described by genetics. Genetics is the branch of biology that studies how traits are passed from parents to their offspring through genes.

Evolution is the change in heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations.

Adaptation is the process by which organisms become better suited to their environment.

Natural selection is a mechanism of evolution where organisms with advantageous traits for survival and reproduction are more likely to pass on their genes to the next generation.
