Natural selection suggests that creatures with mutations disadvantageous to survival will not live to reproduce, yet there are examples, such as albino animals, found occasionally. Do these exceptions discredit natural selection? Explain your answer.

             yes the above statement is true.natural selection is not dis credit.

Explanation:

                      In order to support my answer we just take an example of mutation in an organism as the mutation in organism occur and is useful for the survival of the organism we called the mutation as the good mutation. Thus it is true that some mutation that cause disease and is disadvantageous for the survival of organism. Albino is a case studied here which is abnormal skin color and the skin color as the advantage to camouflage  in the surrounding and the organism which can not camouflage will not survive properly because the can not protect them from the predator.

because they want 2 and yea

the diploid number of chromosomes is sometimes represented by the symbol 2n. for the fruit fly, the diploid number is 8, which can be written as 2n = 8, where n represents twice the number of chromosomes in a sperm or egg cell.
