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.

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

d. introduce native flowering plants the adult butterflies need for nectar, their main food.

Explanation:

Organisms choose the habitat based on the availability of basic requirements such as food, nutrients, space, etc. in the region. The absence of one or more of these factors makes them choose another habitat. Butterflies feed on nectar made by plants in their flowers. To make the butterflies stay in the landscape, flowering plants adapted to local conditions should be planted. The butterflies would feed on the nectar of these plants and would stay in the landscape.

Explain the cause-effect relationship between environmental changes and the extinction of species.
Contact [7]

Answer: Anything living needs to have certain conditions, if for example a group of flightless birds who are adapted for warm weather had their environment get colder each year and more extreme the surrounding plants and other animals may have a difficult time surviving and this will cause the birds to have less food. The birds also will not be accustomed to these changes and will not be able to adapt their bodies fast enough. This also makes reproduction difficult and in turn further dwindles the population.

Hope this helps!
