A mutation is any alteration in the genetic material (nucleotide sequence) of an organism. Mutations can be neutral, harmful, or beneficial depending on the environment in which the orgasm lives.
- In this case, the mutation IS HARMFUL because the organism is not more able to break down starch.
- The deleterious mutations are eliminated (selected) by natural selection.
- Beneficial germline mutations can eventually be inherited, increasing their frequency in the population.

Answer: Some substances pass through small holes in the surface cell membrane. This is called diffusion and does not require the cell to expend energy. Oxygen gets into a cell and carbon dioxide (the product of respiration reactions) leaves it this way. ... small particles (ions or molecules) diffuse more quickly than large ones.
Explanation:
Worldwide, there are 107 boy babies born for every 100 girl babies. This skewed ratio is partly due to sex-selective abortion and "gendercide," the killing of female infants, in countries such as China and India where males are more desired. But even discounting those factors, the completely natural male-to-female sex ratio still hovers around 105:100, meaning that women are inherently more likely to give birth to boys. Why?
Several factors influence whether a sperm containing a Y sex chromosome or one containing an X chromosome will be first to fertilize an egg, including parental ages, their environmental exposure, stress, the stage in the mother's ovulation cycle and even whether she has had children previously; all these forces combine to set the average sex ratio at fertilization at 105:100.
