The most likely outcome for an organism that is well adapted to its environment, but faces a rapid, major change, is:
**The organism will not be able to adapt, and the species will go extinct.**
Rapid and significant environmental changes often exceed the adaptive capacity of organisms, leading to extinction if they cannot cope with the new conditions.
**The organism will not be able to adapt, and the species will go extinct.**
