How can scientist tell if there are mutations

mutation
Genetic mapping is mapping genes to a specific location on a chromosome. therefore the purpose is that it helps to tell where on the chromosome a mutation is. For example if scientists find were on a chromosome a gene for a certain mutation, they can conduct gene therapy to replace it with a normal version of that gene. Basically it just tells scientists the location of a mutation so they can fix it more efficiently.
Scientists use the term "mutation" to describe a change in a gene. Mutations can be caused by various factors and can result in a range of effects, from no noticeable change to significant alterations in the organism's characteristics.
Potentially, any genetic mutation can be passed on...... i think to tell you the truth WOT THE HELLL U ON ABOUT
Scientists have found that a mutation in a gene named HOXB13 puts men at a 20 times greater liklihood of developing prostate cancer. So if a father or grandfather has this mutation, their male offspring may have it as well.

Scientists use many different things to study microevolution. One tool they use is called Mendel's Accountant, which allows realistic numerical simulation of the mutation/selection process.
they do it by using a seismograph
Not that I know of, but I'm sure that scientists some day will create a mutation like one. (That would be so cool though!)
A mistake made during copying of genetic information is called a
I think that fossils tell scientists what the animal was doing, what it was eating, and, how it moves.
