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.

VashaNatasha [74]

The scientific name of any organism is written by its genus name and species name. This is called binomial system of naming. While writing the scientific name of an organism, the name of the genus written first with a capital letter and the name of the species is written second with a small letter.  When typed scientific name is in italics and when it is hand written the genus name and the species are to be underlined separately.

1.each of several hierarchical levels in an ecosystem, comprising organisms that share the same function in the food chain and the same nutritional relationship to the primary sources of energy.

A scavenger is an organism that mostly consumes decaying biomass, such as meat or rotting plant material. Many scavengers are a type of carnivore, which is an organism that eats meat. While most carnivores hunt and kill their prey, scavengers usually consume animals that have either died of natural causes or been killed by another carnivore.

Scavengers are a part of the food web, a description of which organisms eat which other organisms in the wild. Organisms in the food web are grouped into trophic, or nutritional, levels. There are three trophic levels. Autotrophs, organisms that produce their own food, are the first trophic level. These include plants and algae. Herbivores, or organisms that consume plants and other autotrophs, are the second trophic level. Scavengers, other carnivores, and omnivores, organisms that consume both plants and animals, are the third trophic level.

Nitrogen is converted from atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into usable forms, such as NO2-, in a process known as fixation. The majority of nitrogen is fixed by bacteria, most of which are symbiotic with plants. Recently fixed ammonia is then converted to biologically useful forms by specialized bacteria.
