What is the biggest prehistoric cat?
There were three recognized species of Smilodon, or sabertoothed cat. The largest was Smilodon Populator, at over 800 pounds, the largest cat that ever lived.
How is mutation different from an adaptation?
nutation
Is mutation the same as successful reproduction?
A mutation is basically a change in genes. They may be good or bad. A good mutation is also known as an adaptation.
What of the four evolutionary mechanisms is responsible for adaptation?
Mutation, Reproduction.
What is a generic term for something that leads to a new adaptation?
A mutation
Is a pesticide resistant bug caused by a mutation or an adaptation?
A pesticide-resistant bug is typically caused by a mutation in its genetic makeup that enables it to survive exposure to the pesticide. Over time, this mutation allows the bug to develop an adaptation to the pesticide, making it more difficult to control.
What is a woolly mammoths predator?
Sabertoothed tiger
What eats lettuce coral?
sabertoothed tigers.
What are the differences between a normal cat and a cat with the genetic mutation known as "rr"?
A cat with the genetic mutation "rr" has a different coat color than a normal cat. The "rr" mutation causes a lack of pigment in the fur, resulting in a white coat color. This mutation is recessive, meaning both parents must carry the gene for it to be expressed in the offspring. In contrast, a normal cat will have a coat color determined by its dominant genes.
What is the same between mutation and adaptation?
Both mutation and adaptation involve changes in an organism's genetic makeup in response to changes in the environment. Mutations are random changes in DNA that can lead to variations in traits, while adaptation is the process by which organisms adjust to their environment over time to increase their chances of survival and reproduction. Both mutation and adaptation play crucial roles in evolution.
Which animal is the best adaptation?
Cat or dog.
How can a mutation lead to an adaptation?
A mutation is an evolution of the deceased ancestors which takes decades to form. Example: in the past, whales had legs and elephants never had trunks--million years later (present time), whales have fins and elephants have trunks. An adaptation is getting used to--like bacteria becoming resistance towards antibiotics and how we, humans, are suited with most of the environment around us. How can a mutation lead to an adaptation? Adaptation tends to be faster than mutation, but both help the organism to survive; natural selection. Since mutation is known to occur randomly; mutation can lead to adaptation by "choosing" an organism for the "survival of the fittest". Additionally, an adaptation is a mutation. When an mutation is occurring, genes are passed down from generation to generation. As more and more organisms are inheriting the mutation, they become a typical part of the species. The mutation has become an adaption.
