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.
When is a mutation helpful?
A Mutation is helpful if it helps the Mutated survive more readily in the wild. If a hummingbird needs a longer beak because a flower is long, then it mutates over generationsd to accomidate the problem
What causes of mutation in living organisms?
Many things: ionizing radiation, free radicals, various chemicals, copying errors, retroviruses, etc.
What are some of the causes of genetic mutation?
DNA fails to copy accurately and external influences can create mutation
How do living organisms adapt?
Animals do not consciously adapt to their environment. Adaptations come about through mutant variations, most of which are detrimental. However, occasionally a mutation will be beneficial and allow the creature to survive more easily. Such a creature has more chances to procreate and pass on the successful mutation or gene.

How many years can Andean condors live up to?
It is one of the longest living birds living anywhere from 50 to 100 years depending on whether or not it is being held in captivity.

Why can a mutation be an advantage for population of living things?
This is b'coz it creates variations in the characteristics of organisms =)
How mutation affect survival skills of an organism?
It depends on the mutation. Some mutations have no effect on survival, some mutations are lethal, and some mutations make an individual better adapted to its environment, so it will be more fit than those without the mutation, and therefore produce more offspring with the same mutation, which could change the allele frequency of a population.
How are insects helpful to the living world?
Insects are very helpful to the living world. Insects help to pollinate the flowers in the world, so that more flowers can grow and produce oxygen.
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.
All living things are made up of tiny?
yes although the number of cells in an organism may vary depending on whether it is a unicellular or multicellular organism.
How helpful can a living trust be?
Living trusts can be very helpful, however they are falsely promoted as real estate cure-alls, and can also be abused. Therefore, it is important to ascertain that the living trust offer you have chosen is trust-worthy before accepting the offer.
Are bacteria helpful or harmful to Earth's living things?
things are harmful to earth
Is Nelson Mendela living?
yes he is but if you can it would be helpful to know where he is now wouldn't it?
What two sources do genetic variation in living things include?
mutation in the DNA order and sexual reproduction of the favorable animal in the ecosystem.
