That's all! Hope that helps :)
Answer:
A mutation is generally referred to as certain alternations in the gene whether it may be DNA sequences, which may be beneficial, harmful or of no significance to the mutant gene bearing organisms.
Explanation:
- A mutation that increases the ability to store moisture in a dry environment is obviously beneficial. Because it prevents dehydration and maintains normal functioning in spite of adverse conditions.
- A color mutation that decreases a bird's chances of sexual selection is beneficial in the sense that it prevent certain abnormalities in offspring like sexual dimorphism. Also sexual selection often proves to be a threat to the survival of the organisms as per handicap principle.
- A mutation in non coding region of DNA is harmful, as it is often observed to facilitate expression of wrong proteins at inappropriate places.
- A mutation in the that does not changes protein synthesis increased white pigmentation on a prey animal in snowy environment as it had prevented adaption of the prey and hence harmful for survival of it.
- A mutation decreasing plant's height in competition to light, makes them less exposed to sun energy important for photosynthesis and hence it is harmful for the plant.
The forest fire released CO2 (Carbon dioxide)which is essential for plants but CO (Carbon monoxide)is harmful to many organism including humans.But the forest fire isn't always bad. Sometimes it is a opportunity for predator to hunt animals while they are fleeing for life. Small animals can hide under rock or burned wood to escape fire. Snakes bury themselves in soil. Some of them isn't so lucky, koalas will climb up to the treetops then stick there.
It stores the cell's hereditary material, or DNA, and it coordinates the cell's activities, which include intermediary metabolism, growth, protein synthesis, and reproduction (cell division). The diverse functions of the ER are performed by distinct domains; consisting of tubules, sheets and the nuclear envelope.
