Mutations are spontaneous and occur at random however there are some mutagenic agents which increase the chance of this happening such as radiation exposure. If it is a point shift mutation then only a few bases on the dna sequence are changed so only changes a few of the amino acids in that chain (such as inversion of a base). If its a frame shift then the base sequence is altered so much so that every amino acid from after that changes (such as deletion of a base) which can create things such as cri-du-chat syndrome which results from a piece of chromosome 5 is missing. Hope this helps:)

Design a controlled experiment to determine whether earthworms change the forest ecosystem.
Orlov [11]

"The experimental hypothesis may be that if Asian worms are introduced into a <u>deciduous forest</u>, the soil's nutritional composition will alter. The control group would consist of a region of the forest that has been worm-free in some way. But in order to serve as a control, this forest would experience the same amount of sunshine, heat, and precipitation. In order to determine if Asian worms actually have an impact on the forest ecology, the scientists could then analyze the amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur in the two portions of the forest."

Deciduous forest- A deciduous forest is one that is mostly made up of trees that shed their leaves in the fall.
