Describe three ways a mutation can occur

1. DNA fails to accurately copy

Most of the mutations naturally occur. When a cell divides, it makes a copy of its DNA — and sometimes the copy is not quite perfect, thus making a mutation.

2. Environmental influences

Mutations can occur when you have been exposed to chemical radiation etc. because when DNA is damaged when coming into contact with dangerous substances it tries to repair itself, but doesn't always do a good job- thus creating a mutation.

spiders belong to a group of arachnids.

arachnids have the following traits :

they have two body parts.

they have eight legs unlike insects which have 6 legs.

they have no wings.

these traits distinguish them from insects.

the information that antonio is doubting us the statement that spiders differences are as a result of being first to evolve.

this is because the evolution of one species is independent of the other species.
