Concept Introduction:
Each individual of a given population contains some variations such as water, nutrients, tolerating changes in the temperature, attracting partners, and avoiding predators that make them greater as compared to others. Mutation can lead to introduce a new allele within a population. The introducing trait may be beneficial or neutral, harmful, relies on the effect of sequence of protein that has encoded. Mutation causes the variation within individuals.
