Answer:

A substitution is a mutation that exchanges one base for another (i.e., a change in a single "chemical letter" such as switching an A to a G). Such a substitution could: change a codon to one that encodes a different amino acid and cause a small change in the protein produced.

Explain how the use of a chemical designed to kill grasshoppers could reduce the population of peregrine falcons.
Butoxors [25]
Peregrine falcons have a wide diet, including many types of smaller birds. These birds eat bugs like grasshoppers. So, if the grasshopper population decreases, then the birds who are a food source to peregrine falcons will also have a lower population. This means that there is a lesser amount of food for the peregrine falcons to eat, so their population will decrease as well. 

Good luck with your problems!

Brums [2.3K]
As we already know, organism mean's something that is living.
Well, at a habitat there is going to be some animal's or insect's because it's that animal's or insect's habitat. ( They live there.) Well <u>most</u> organism's are food.
( NOTICE I bloldfaced "most", this is because not all organism's are food) Okay, let's go over what we just said. Organism's are living thing's and habitat's are places where organism's live. Now we have to think about this, you stated, Describe how is an <u>organism's food</u> and habitat related. The one thing we have not talked about is, <u>organism's food</u>.

 ( Remember, some <u>organism's eat other organism's</u>) This is how organism's food and habitat are related.

<u>Hope this help's!</u>
<u>Good luck on your </u>
