The phrase "acquisition and adaptation" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing processes of obtaining something and adjusting to new conditions or environments.
Example: "The success of the project relies on the acquisition and adaptation of new technologies to meet our evolving needs."
Alternatives: "gathering and adjustment" or "procurement and modification."
The acquisition and adaptation of pre-existing proteins is a fascinating phenomenon.
In the third study, activity in the DLPFC was parametrically related to the acquisition and adaptation of motor response biases due to changes in the probabilistic structure of the stimuli.
Increased executive motor control was delineated by testing for activity parametrically related to the acquisition and adaptation of motor response biases due to changes in the probabilistic structure of the stimuli.
The acquisition and adaptation of complex manual motor sequences involves activation of a frontoparietal praxis network involved in hand manipulation skills, 20, 21 as well as a frontocerebellar basal ganglia network involved in novel motor sequence learning.
Increased resource allocation to root growth is thought to increase water acquisition and therefore adaptation to drought (Chimungu et al. 2014).
To comprehensively identify mechanisms of iron acquisition and low iron adaptation in A. baumannii, the affect of iron starvation on A. baumannii cells was investigated at the global level.
Strategies of acclimation and adaptation for acquisition and occupation of niches with environmental stress offered by CAM determine the population dynamics of CAM plants.
As MGEs can carry genes encoding resistance, virulence, and/or host-specific factors that are relevant for survival and adaptation, their acquisition and loss is predicted to play important roles in adaptation to changing environments.
They are thought to regulate diverse responses involving, for example, nitrogen acquisition and assimilation, aerobic respiration, adaptation to pH and osmolarity changes, virulence related to secretion systems, toxin production, and adherence factors.
Virulence acquisition and loss is a dynamic adaptation of pathogens to thrive in changing milieus.
And although nonhuman primates may present particular risks for disease emergence, HIV-associated immunosuppression likely increases the risk for acquisition, adaptation, and emergence of zoonoses infecting other animals that are hunted extensively in these communities, such as monkeypox and hantaviruses in rodents and Lyssavirus in bats.
