Answer:

insertion mutation

Explanation:

a substitution mutation only changes one thing, but an insertion mutation changes everything after the point of insertion. The insertion pushes everything back, causing a chain effect

lets say i have the sentence "I have a dog"

a substitution mutation might change it to "K have a dog", seems kinda bad, but not as bad as "K Ihav e ado g" (result of insertion of K at beginning)

Living beings exhibit various changes in the behavior and niche to make themselves better fitted to the conditions of their habitats.  

Boreal owls feed on the other smaller mammals such as mice and shrews. These organisms that serve as their prey are relatively less abundant in the habitat. To ensure the food availability, the boreal owls occupy a larger area so that they can catch their less abundant food organisms.  

In the habitats where the prey species of boreal owls are present in a larger number, these owls occupy smaller regions since the food organisms are easily available.
