When we breathe, our respiratory system takes up oxygen and carbon dioxide or other useless gases go out . The oxygen combines with the haemoglobin in the blood of the circulatory system . This is transferred to all the cells of our body to get energy.
When two lions compete for the same habitat, shelter, and food
A mistake in DNA replication before meiosis produces an organism that is better able to outrun predators.
Explanation:
The genetic variation results from the different alleles of a population. The mutation or mistake in DNA replication would cause gene variants which may be beneficial. The variation in the DNA sequence of genome results in variants in small population.
Genetic variation is the cause of natural selection and eventually, evolution takes place with beneficial traits.
It is mentioned in the question that resulting offspring having received the mutant allele could result in better surviving capabilities or phenotypic traits as they are able to outrun predators.
