The adaptive mechanism aspect within culture can help in explaining that human beings can adapt to any kind of environment. It can be said that humans can survive in any given environment and it do not really depend on their cultural backgrounds. They are able to adjust in any environment which is the reason why they are able to survive in the social and physical environmental setting. Every person have to adapt to the lifestyle and living conditions of the place they are living in and if they move to other country or region then they have to mould their social and physical environment in a way which can be adjusted and also can be considered more suitable to them.
