The probable reason for the case would be that the sea floor 200 million years ago is now above the sea level.  

The ocean floor is the eventual recycling center. While the Earth's continental crust can prevail for billions of years, the movement of tectonic plates results in subduction, that is when the crust of the ocean is pushed down into the present mantle. So, the ocean floor hardly endures longer than 200 million years.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

mutations can be either beneficial or harmful depending on the environment

Explanation:

Mutations can be defined as genetic changes in the nucleotide sequence of the genome of one organism. Mutations are usually neutral, but they can also be deleterious and/or beneficial depending on the environment. For example, recessive mutations that cause sickle-cell anemia, which is a recessive genetic disease that affects homo-zygous individuals, have shown to be advantageous for heterozygous individuals living in regions where malaria is endemic. Beneficial mutations can be selected by natural selection, thereby increasing their frequency in the population.
