Mangroves are a group of trees, which are found abundantly in the coastal regions. These trees are well known to provide protection to the shorelines with help of their tangled adventitious roots. The tangled roots hold the soil and prevent it's erosion. It also stabilise the land sediments and perform a function of filtration. they trap pollutants and maintain the clarity of the water.

Hence, the correct options are:

1 . They hold soil in place.  

3 . They maintain surface water flow.  

5. They filter water and improve water quality.

The correct answers are:

1 . They hold soil in place

2 . They store floodwaters.

The roles of mangrove trees are protective. Their dense root systems trap sediments flowing down rivers and off the land which helps in stabilization of the coastline and prevention of erosion from waves and storms. Also, mangrove trees provide natural barriers protecting coastal communities from flooding and hurricanes.

5.They filter water and improve water quality

Mangroves filter water with their dense network of roots and trap sediments, heavy metals, and other pollutants.

andre [41]

Explanation:

Mutations increase variation within a population.

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes. There are two types:

  • somatic: these only occur within certain cells, and arise from environmental factors such as UV light
  • hereditary: occur within germ cells of the parent and later the fertilized egg which forms a zygote; these are present within all cells of the new organism.

Further Explanation:

During reproduction other events, such as crossing over during mitosis and meiosis, mutations lead to increases in genetic variation. This variation refers to the genetic characteristics present within a species. Mutations may be either beneficial or deleterious; they are maintained within cells, as they form new traits called alleles. Beneficial mutations may confer traits that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring a protective advantage- these phenotypic differences between organisms are called adaptations.

Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA, which makes up the genotype, is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins which make up the phenotype of an organism.Mutations in DNA sequences affect the corresponding mRNA and thus the protein encoded.
