Mutations are changes that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke.
They increase the genetic variation within a species because they can create entirely new alleles in a population, random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis which reshuffles alleles within an organism's offspring.

Answer:
1) intake of glucose molecules from the blood by specific transporters
2) high amount of glucose in the blood, sending signals toward the pancreas
3) binding of hormones with receptors on the liver
4) release of hormones from the receptors
5) synthesis of hormones by beta cells
Explanation:
During ingestion of the meal, insulin is produced in response to high blood glucose levels (concentration of glucose increases after digestion of food). Like other hormones, insulin performed its action through binding specific signals to specific receptors e.g, liver, muscle cells. The high glucose level in the blood send signals through hormones to liver, fat, and muscle cell receptors. These receptors release specific hormones to beta cells of the pancreas. In response to the signals from receptors, beta cells synthesize insulin to minimize glucose levels in the bloodstream.
Answer:
OB) An elephant in the savannah develops without the ability to hear. A salamander living in a cave is born without, eyesight or fully developed eyes.
Explanation:
Adaptations are gradual modifications and changes in the physical characteristics or behavior of an organism, so that it could facilitate the survival of the organism in that particular environment.
In case of elephant without ability to hear specially in the regions of Savannah where there is vast grasslands with scanty vegetation and animals, then the elephant can't hear any sound of danger like approaching calamities, also it could hear the call of other elephants, in case if the elephant becomes segregated.
In salamander, low eyesight or low vision will further add to the misery, as there is already darkness in the cave. It could fall prey to any predator or it could not be able to feed on consumable organisms as it could see properly.
