A study observed that a parent and its offspring all had blue eyes, as opposed to the brown coloured eyes commonly seen in the population. What feature of mutations does this study provide the best evidence for?
The individuals acquired the blue-eye mutation due to errors in the proofreading of DNA

If a random mutation in one fruit fly results in resistance to a specific pesticide, how would this lead to resistance in the fruit fly population?
The mutation makes the insect able to survive and reproduce, passing the mutation onto the next generation
The mutation allows the insect to ingest more food, enabling it to be healthier than other insects
The mutation allows the insect to avoid predation
The mutation enables the insect to be better camouflaged than other insects
