Why does having a genetically diverse population make a species more likely to survive a change to the enviroment?

having a genetically diverse population make a species more likely to survive a change to the enviroment because random mutations can occur in a species and if a sudden change in the environment were to occur like extreme heat for example, some of the mutations in their DNA may help them survive this extreme heat and the species will be more likely to survive

i'd think it's paralell

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.
