8. What instrument is used to measure air pressure Air pressure, atmospheric
pressure-use a barometer
9. What are mutations Genetic mutations-variety
10. What does mutation do .. Options were all about how Retry A change in a gene
mutations give you advantages (DNA), results in a mu-
tation. There are benefi-
cial mutations that help an
organism (think about a
white fur gene for a rabbit
living in the arctic). There
are also mutations that
harm and can kill an or-
ganism (think about dis-
eases like Sickle Cell Ane-
mia). Remember, for evo-
lution to work you need
mutations. The white fur
mutation for the rabbit
helps it to survive in the
snow of the Arctic because
it is camouflaged. answer:
They are beneficial to sur-
vive or create variations
within genes of popula-
tions
