General 'rule' - "like dissolves like". The solubility
of a solute in a solvent (that is, the extent of the mixing of the

tendency for the solute and solvent species to mix and the tendency for a
system to have the lowest energy possible.
Hope this helps :p
Answer is: <span>Mutations sometimes improve the chances of survival for a plant.
</span>Mutations are very important because they change <span>variability in populations and in that way enable evolutionary change.
</span>There are three types of mutations:
1) good or advantageous mutations - <span> improve the chances of survival for a plant.
2) </span>bad or deleterious - decrease the chances of survival for a plant.
3) neutral - not affect he chances of survival for a plant.
Neutrons are responsible for combining with protons in the nucleus together to be held by the strong force. Too many neutrons in an atom will result in radioactive decay due to the neutrons' force overpowering the strong force.
