Mutations are spontaneous and occur at random however there are some mutagenic agents which increase the chance of this happening such as radiation exposure. If it is a point shift mutation then only a few bases on the dna sequence are changed so only changes a few of the amino acids in that chain (such as inversion of a base). If its a frame shift then the base sequence is altered so much so that every amino acid from after that changes (such as deletion of a base) which can create things such as cri-du-chat syndrome which results from a piece of chromosome 5 is missing. Hope this helps:)
Answer:
Energy in an ecosystem is mainly made by the producers of an ecosystem. The net primary productivity in an ecosystem depends on many factors. Some of them are:
- Amount of sunlight: The amount of sunlight that the plants and trees might be has basic influence on the primary productivity. Plants and trees receiving enough sun light will be able to make more food for organisms living in that area as compared to the producers which do not receive enough sun light.
- Soil texture: The soil texture and the availability of nutrients heavily influence the primary productivity of an ecosystem. An area having a soil texture with not enough nutrients will not be able to grow more plants. As a result, the productivity would decrease.

DNA is considered the molecule of life because it contains the instructions that ensure the continuity of life. Employment of DNA to code for protein is the basis of all life on earth.
In all living things, inherited DNA is used to code for amino acids which when joined or linked together in a deliberate specific manner form polypeptides which make up proteins. These proteins are responsible for structure and function of cells.
For example DNA provides information to make four polypeptide (two beta and two alpha ) chains which make up hemoglobin, the protein that functions as the oxygen carrier in red blood cells. In summary,
DNA → protein → trait, and that relationship is the physical basis of life.
