DNA contains the instructions needed for an organism to develop, survive and reproduce. To carry out these functions, DNA sequences must be converted into messages that can be used to produce proteins, which are the complex molecules that do most of the work in our bodies.
Energy is decreasing by 500 because some of it is turned into heat energy.
Explanation:
when an animal/creature consumes another living thing and or something that has energy it is decrease to a certain amount because some of the energy that the original animal/creature had is turned into heat energy because they use some of the energy for themselves to survive and live.
For example:
A flower is a producer because it produces energy and gets it gets eaten by a deer and some energy gets changed to heat and the other is consumed by the consumer (the deer) and so on.
There are several mutations that benefit the organism.A well known example is the antibiotic resistance developed by bacteria, which aid in their survival even when they are exposed to a given antibiotic. A single gene mutation in wild almond trees resulted in a variety that no longer synthesizes amygdalin.
