Teams of computer scientists and biology students work together to develop a simulated experiment on mutations in mice. The simulation is programmed with the complete sequence of mouse DNA. Then it calculates the frequency of mutations under three conditions: when the mice are subjected to tobacco smoke, subjected to ultraviolet radiation, and kept under normal conditions. For each mutation, the simulation identifies whether the mutation affects a mouse protein.

if the hares very faster than they are now, and thus the lynx's hunting success rate drops because it will be harder to catch them, the rate that will change will be the pray-rate. the pray-rate will change because more hares will be able to survive, thus more individuals for reproduction, so the end result will be increasing population of hares.

the predator-rate will remain pretty much the same because there will be more than enough pray, but the hunting success rate is stagnant.
