What provision was included in the US Constitution to allow it to adapt to changing times?
The Elastic Clause, also known as the Necessary and Proper Clause allows congress to pass any law "necessary and proper" for the greater good of the people.
Another thing that is used is the Ammendment Process in which an amendment is proposed in congress and voted on by all state legislatures. If three-fourths of those state legislatures approve of it, it is then ratified into the constitution.

EzraArticle V, which permits amendments to the Constitution, is what makes it responsive to the needs of a changing nation. One can also say that Article I, Section 8's "necessary and proper" clause does as well, because it allows Congress to make laws as needed at the time in furtherance of the general powers it is given in the Constitution.
