The importance of fat in the diets of our ancestors was mainly a result of its energy-storing properties.

They had to travel and work for the food and as they were scavengers, it was not guaranteed to have food on a daily basis, so the fat has energy storing properties and for which its importance was realized in the diet. Later when they became hunters, protein became more important in their diet.

For example, in a DNA sequence that reads: TAA GTC GGG, a mutated sequence affected by single nucleotide-pair substitution will read as follows: TAA GTC TGG. Note that in the last codon (GGG), a single nucleotide G has been replaced by another nucleotide T. Therefore, single nucleotide-pair substitution is said to have occur.
