When was the first duck born?

There is no such thing as "the first duck." all things on earth evolved slowly, mutation by mutation, so that they fit their environment. Things that have good mutations live and have kids, and their kids have that mutation. That's how evolution works.


What three things happen to the Earth's crust when earthquakes occur?

Three things that happen to the Earth's crust when earthquakes occur include, a release in energy, plates sliding past one another, and fractures developing in the crust. Not all of these things happen at the same time and which occurs depends on the strength of the earthquake.


What would happen if a gene is changed or mutated?

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) transcription occurs at a rate of around 1000x per second alone in a single-cell. Errors in these processes are typically checked and corrected by special enzymes. However errors in DNA transcription can result in protein synthesis with deleted amino acids which at best can be harmless. At worst, the deletion (or defective synthesis) of proteins can create fatal cancers through localized cell mutations.

What is the significane of mutation of living things?

The significance of the mutation of living things is that mutation allows species to adapt to their environments over time (variations in human skin color are a good example of this). It is also a major part of Darwin's all but proven Theory of Evolution.

How does mutation lead to evolution?

its called survival of the fittest. if by some chance there is a mutation during a time of change in a living things surroundings and the mutation helps that living thing survive while other living things not "fit" to survive that change will have a lesser chance of surving. If that mutation passes on to the mutated living things children then that is what leads to evolution in living things.

What process makes change in living things possible?

Well its evolution of course, but that happens when there is random mutation to a specific gene, e.g colour. if this gene mutation helps improve the living things chances of survival it is passed on to their offspring.
