Mutations in DNA may or may not result in a change in the phenotype of an organism. In which of the following situations will a mutation appear in the phenotype of an individual? O The mutation occurs in an organism which is past reproductive age O The genetic code for protein synthesis has not been altered in a gamete producing cell O The mutation occurs in a body cell of the organism, resulting in cancer O The mutation results in a change in the amino acid sequence of the protein in a gamete producing cell

Question
During the summer of 1988, fires burned much of Yellowstone National Park, leaving a patchwork of burned and unburned areas. In the year following the fires, wildflowers sprouted in all the burned areas, closely followed in subsequent years by seedlings of the trees that normally grow in the area, such as aspens and lodgepole pines. What changes in the ecosystem will take place during secondary succession? The trees will not grow well because of the toxic chemicals produced by the flowers and the ashes of the fire The flowers will shade out the small trees creating a permanent meadow The flowers will deplete the soil of nutrients and the area will become a desert The flowers will be replaced by shrubs, the shrubs will be replaced by trees, until eventually the area resembles the unburned areas
