A mutation is a rare, accidental or induced modification of genetic information (DNA or RNA sequence) in the genome.
The consequences of a mutation vary according to the part of the genome affected. A mutation is said to be hereditary if the mutated genetic sequence is passed on to the next generation.
In multicellular animals, germline mutations can be transmitted to offspring, whereas somatic mutations do.
Somatic mutations do not affect cells intended for reproduction, so they are never hereditary:
* Post-zygotic mutations are the mutations that appear in the egg after fertilization. They are rarer and are expressed as mosaic in the individual concerned (the mutation will be present only in the daughter cells originating from the mutated embryonic cell).
* Mutations can appear throughout life on the DNA of any cell; they are then transmitted to the line of the daughter cells. These can, in some cases, become tumor cells and then form cancer.

It is d, becuase you divide 500 by 15, and that is the closest answer
Urochordata is another invertebrate other than hagfish.

Hey there!
I believe that David's prediction would be: If the amount of pollutants in the atmosphere reached an amount unhealthy for the salamanders, then the salamander population would decrease.
Let me know if this helps :)
is a functional unit that results from interactions of abiotic, biotic, and anthropogenic components and are a combination of interacting, interrelating parts that form a unitary whole. Ecosystems vary in size. They can be as small as a puddle, or as large as the earth itself. Basically, any living and non-living things interacting together can be considered an ecosystem. Within each ecosystem, there are habitats that vary in size. A habitat is a place where a population lives. A population is a group of living organisms of the same kind living in the same place at the same time. Natural ecosystems are made up of abiotic factors such as air, water, rocks, and energy and biotic factors such as plants, animals, and microorganisms.
I know just that
