All evolutionary changes that allow a species to change in response to the environment, are originally a result of beneficial DNA mutations.

Beneficial genetic (DNA) mutations are result in individuals with special characteristics that allow them to survive better in the environment so they pass their genes to the next generation.

Here's a fictional example I made just for you!: Lets say you have an alien species called Hibas. They are jelly blobs that float around, don't move, and open their mouths to capture neon shrimps that happen to swim into their mouths. But one day a certain Hiba developed some muscles through a genetic mutation. It was able to "wiggle" through the water and steer itself instead of floating around. This allowed it to eat more neon shrimp than the other Hibas, so it grew faster and was able to reproduce faster. It's kids also had muscles and had an advantage so they reproduced faster then the other Hibas. Eventually the whole Hiba species started to have muscles because the ones that didn't weren't able to compete and did not survive as well. 
The reason that most of the Hibas developed muscles was because one of them had a mutation that allowed it to have muscles. This was a BENEFICIAL mutation that allowed it to SURVIVE BETTER.

Explanation:

Cellulose is most abundant in meristems tissues which are present in the tips of the root and stem and in the cambium between the xylem and the phloem and under the epidermis of the trees and shrubs, therefore it is abundant in the stems.

Meristems are also found in other parts of the plant  but it is mostly abundant in the stems.

Meristems are the cells that are responsible for the cell growth and elongation.

Setler [38]
<span> One reason farmers often choose GM crops over non-GM crops is because GM crops are able to produce more yield. When farmers use GM crops, there are many benefits that they could gain. It has been proven that GM crops are more resistant to pests, and other harmful substances, which also reduce the costs for pesticides and crop-maintenance. Since GM crops are more resistant to harmful substances, more of them can be used by farmers.</span>
