There are too many individual chemicals, and even too many classes of chemicals to list that cause mutations. Generally, the chemicals that cause mutations are the ones that permanently damage the DNA in a cell, either by oxidation, or by creating base replacement or double-stranded breaks.
A mutation is the alteration of a gene that results in a variant form of the body. Some chemicals known to cause mutations are nitrosonguanidine, hydroxylamine, bromodeoxyuridine and ethidium bromide
Some of the mutation causing compounds and chemicals are:
One of the worst compounds for causing mutation and health problems is UF6, or commonly known as Depleted Uranium.
chemicals in cigarette smoke can cause mutations in genes that can lead to lung cancer.
Chemicals or things that can cause a mutation are called mutagens. Some examples of mutagens are nitrous acid, ethidium bromide, bromouracil and sodium azide.
carcinagens are some
Formaldehyde, benzene, and chloloform
Mutagens are chemical or physical factors that increase the rate of mutation. Some are natural, and some are synthetic. Some examples of mutagens are: - Cosmic rays - Some viruses - Harmful atomic radiation - Recreational drugs - Tobacco - Alcohol - Pesticides - Asbestos - Soot
it depends on what mutation you speak of. some are and some are not.
i] spontaneous mutation ii] induced mutation iii] germinal mutation iv] somatic mutation v] chromosomal mutation vi] gene mutation are the some of the major types of mutation......
It depends on the mutation. Some mutations have no effect on survival, some mutations are lethal, and some mutations make an individual better adapted to its environment, so it will be more fit than those without the mutation, and therefore produce more offspring with the same mutation, which could change the allele frequency of a population.
Harmful- genetic diseasesHelpful-sometimes produces chemicals that can ward off certain illnesses.

There are many situations that can cause burning or itching eyes. Examples of situations that can cause burning or itching eyes include working with chemicals or being around gases.
Some chemicals cause cancer, whereas others have been designed to fight it -Apex
yes, because of some of the chemicals
Mutagens are chemical or physical factors that increase the rate of mutation. Some are natural, and some are synthetic. Some examples of mutagens are: - Cosmic rays - Some viruses - Harmful atomic radiation - Recreational drugs - Tobacco - Alcohol - Pesticides - Asbestos - Soot
Mutations can cause a cell to produce an incorrect number of proteins during protein synthesis and the phenotype of the organism would be different from what it normally would have been. Some examples are when a cat has 6 toes or a lemur has white fur.
chemicals and waste products are examples of pollutants
what are the main part of some examples of cooperative? the real examples of it cause some have some differernt of examples of cooperative that why i want to know to the main cooperative examples of it

Examples: sodium cyanide, phosgene, hydrogen fluoride, mercuric chloride, arsenic oxide, etc
