How do mutations contribute to organisms survival in an environment

If the mutation gives an organism a trait that helps them survive, that mutation will get passed on to future generations. ... Genetic variation is multiple genes and traits in a population. The greater the diversity of genes in a population, the greater chance the population will survive a changing environment.

i don't know what the picture looks like but i can take a guess and say maybe basidiomycetes?

answer:

convection currents in the magma drive plate tectonics. heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere. the aesthenosphere (70 ~ 250 km) is part of the mantle, the middle sphere of the earth that extends to 2900 km.
