Many things can cause mutations like Radiation,Changing habitat[eg.The Peppered moth],and of course by constant change from generation to generation.
a change in base sequence in DNA
its either replication or translation
Mutations that occur at a single point in the DNA sequence are Point Mutations.
Interphase
mutation can affect an organism's offspring
RNA polymerase doesn't have a proofreading function.
They occur during cell division and at the time when the sperm fertilizes the egg.
Mutations that occur at a single point in the DNA sequence are Point Mutations.
Interphase
Mutations that occur at one single nitrogen base are referred to as a point mutation.
Such mutations are called point mutation or gene mutation.
Interphase
Yes
mutation can affect an organism's offspring
Successful mutations will persist. Mutations usually occur during replication. Some mutations will flourish depending on environmental factors.
Mutations that occur at random are called spontaneous mutations.
The offspring of the organism will have a mutation.
Mutations and genetic shuffling are two actions that occur during sexual reproductions. These scientific actions are both sources of genetic variation.
Chromosome mutations occur during nuclear division because when the sequence of nucleotides are being placed substitutions, and frameshifts can occur, causing mutations. Substitution is when one nucleotide replaces another and frameshift mutation is when a nucleotide deletes, causing codons to be incorrectly read.
