Solution

The ability of an organism to make small adjustments or changes to its body in a short period of time to adjust itself to the surrounding atmosphere is called acclimatisation.
People who visit mountain ranges experience low oxygen content in the atmosphere at such heights. Their body gets adjusted or acclimatised to changes in the surroundings.
