Choose the most suitable option to replace the highlighted part of the sentence:
You must adapt with the situation.

Correct option is C

The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (c) adapt to the situation.
Explanation: The verb “adapt” takes the preposition “to”, not “with,” when it means adjusting oneself according to circumstances. The correct collocation is adapt to + noun, which shows changing behaviour or approach to match a new condition. Hence, “adapt with the situation” is incorrect and must be replaced with “adapt to the situation.”
Grammatical rule used:
adapt to + situation/conditions/environment
Example: You must adapt to new rules quickly.
