A point mutation is a genetic mutation when a wrong nucleotide bonded to DNA during replication. Usually, DNA polymerase can prevent that because it's an enzyme that finds the right nucleotides to bond to new DNA strands.

in genetics it is a change in the DNA sequence within the gene or chromosome of an organism resulting in the creation of a new character or trait not found in the parent type.

A mutation that involves one or a few nucleotides is called a?
Sorry to burst the persons bubble that said frameshift mutation but its wrong. Point mutation-gene mutation involving changes in one or a few nucleotides. point mutation
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
Mutations that change one or just a few of nucleotides in a gene on a chromosome are called what?
the correct answer is C. a substitution i know this cause i have this book to this question and point mutation is not one of the answer and i found the answer in the book -No its substituton you jack wagon your books wrong
What mutation can change every amino acid that follows the point of mutation?
Frameshift mutations MAY change every amino acid that follows the point of mutation.
Which mutation would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence that follows the mutation?
The answer is easy.
A mutation that involves a single nucletiode is called an?
point mutation
Mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called?
Point Mutation is the mutation that involves a single or few nucleotide. This type of mutation replaces a single nucleotide to another.
A mutation that involves one or a few nucleotides is called a?
Sorry to burst the persons bubble that said frameshift mutation but its wrong. Point mutation-gene mutation involving changes in one or a few nucleotides. point mutation
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
Would a point mutation or a frame shift mutation more likely produce a neutral mutation?
A point shift mutation is more likely to produce a neutral reaction. This is because it involves a change in one nucleotide. A frame shift mutation is more deleterious because it involves the insertion or deletion of multiple base pairs within a gene's coding sequence.

A change in a single nucleotide in DNA-?
A mutation

Frameshift mutations MAY change every amino acid that follows the point of mutation.
Which mutation would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence that follows the mutation?
The answer is easy.
How is it possible for a point mutation to have no effect on the function of gene?
If the point mutation does not change the protein to be translated in the 3-letter sequence, then it will have no effect on the gene's function.
Physical change involves change in?
physical change involves viscosity, conductivity, melting point, boiling point, density, malleability and hardness.
What is a point mutuation?
A point mutation is a type of genetic mutation that involves a change in a single nucleotide base pair in DNA. This can result in the substitution of one nucleotide for another, the insertion of an extra nucleotide, or the deletion of a nucleotide. Point mutations can lead to changes in the amino acid sequence of a protein, which can affect its structure and function.
