Answer:

The correct answer is: C. Acclimatization.

Step-by-step explanation:

Acclimatization refers to the process in which the body adapts to the change in its environment, in this case to climate change. Acclimatization is possible thanks to Homeostasis, which is a series of actions that are taken by the body to regulate things such as temperature and pH.

Heat exhaustion would be the exact opposite of acclimatization, as it describes a condition in which an individual fails to adapt to the increasing temperature and begins to show symptoms such as heavy sweating and rapid pulse.

Syncope portrays a condition that occurs when there's insufficient blood flow to the brain that leads to a temporary loss of consciousness (fainting).

Evaporation, on the other hand, is the state change from liquid to gas.
