Food chains don’t have infinite links, because only about 10% of energy is passed upwards in trophic levels. So a mouse could eat 10 grasshoppers, but a hawk would need to eat 100 mouses to get the same energy

A gene mutation may result in an oncogene. So during that cell's replication the gate keeper genes will no longer be able to suppress it. This results in a mutated daughter cell. If there is a subsequent mutation an a daughter cell, a tumor will be produced.
Gene mutation can also cause mosaicism and result in different phenotypes
