Mutations result from an error in DNA replication, should it be from an alien source (like radiation) or simply a mistake in replication. Migration of organisms to a new population would alter the DNA by adding new genes, but it would not mutate them.

2. Traditionally, protists were classified in kingdom Protista. How has the classification of protists changed? 3. Relate Cause
pantera1 [17]

Protists are the eukaryotes which are neither plants, animals nor fungi. But they are plant-like, fungi-like and animal-like organisms.  It is difficult to classify all the protists in one kingdom Protista because of their numerous diversified traits. There are a few parasites, predators and also producers among the protists. Some have a cell wall, while others have a cell membrane. Mode of locomotion can be flagella, cilia or the pseudopodia. The best example is the <em>Euglena</em> exhibiting both plant and animal like characteristics in having a chloroplast performing photosynthesis and exhibiting locomotion by flagella. These diversified traits made the scientists to reclassify the protists. The kingdoms which arose from protist ancestors include the kingdom animalia, plantae and mycota sharing common characteristic features with their ancestor. Scientists say that we should not look for the earliest ancestors of animals among modern-day protists because, the modern day protists have gone through a process of evolution which makes them different from their early ancestors. The gradual changes during the course of evolution has made them different from their ancestors with respect to their structure, adaptations and also the genetic composition.
