Every change in a species is coded within the DNA. But the bird had lost a toe an accident. So the toe-loosing-option isn't true because not every bird looses his toe.
(Example: If a women gets bitten by a snake on the arm and gets the arm removed from her body and then in a year or so has a baby with her new husband. The baby won't be born with one arm because his/her mother lost her arm.) <span />
Answer:
Nitrogen is a crucially important component for all life. It is an important part of many cells and processes such as amino acids, proteins and even our DNA. It is also needed to make chlorophyll in plants, which is used in photosynthesis to make their food.
The inputs all plants need to carry out photosynthesis are water(H2O) + carbon dioxide (CO2) + sunlight
Ricin comes under the category of functionally related toxins, in a combination known as RIPs (ribosome inactivating proteins). This disables ribosomes and stops the process of protein synthesis.
They directly associate with and inactivate the ribosomes or modify the factors taking part in the process of translation, generally the elongation step. These proteins bring about depurination of adenine at position 4324 in the 28 S rRNA.
This further inhibits the generation of a critical-stem-loop configuration to which the elongation factor is considered to combine at the time of the translocation step of translation. The ultimate outcome of this activity is the complete inhibition of cellular translation.
