<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">adjusts to new conditions</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>
(Other definitions for adapts that I've seen before include "Changes to suit a new purpose" , "fashions" , "Alters to suit new conditions" , "Adjusts to new conditions" , "Changes to fit new circumstances" .)
