Why do mutations in gene affect traits?
Genes produce proteins that cause traits.
True or false Mutations can increase the variations in a species 'traits?
Mutations are important for evolution because they provide the variability whereupon natural selection acts.true last answered by zaporia
What are the effects of crossing over and other irregularities in meiosis?
The effects are mutations, which is the source of new genes and traits
What is a human physiologists?
The study of physical repercussion of human traits as human mutations from abuse or human interactions.
Why does natural selection depend on variations and DNA?
The variations in the DNA are responsible in differences between desirable traits and unwanted traits. Mutations also cause changes in the DNA.
Do mutations in genes affect traits?
Genes produce proteins that cause traits.
What are some traits affected by?
some traits are affected by the enviornment, mutations, and your DNA.
Why do mutations in gene affect traits?
Genes produce proteins that cause traits.
Can mutations increase the variations in a species' traits?
Yes
What kinds of traits are produced by most mutations?
hair color
How mutations might affect the traits of an animal?
it could alter the way the animal moves and how the body works
What is the source of new traits in a population?
New traits in a population can arise through mutations in the DNA of an organism. Mutations are changes in the genetic code that can result in new characteristics that may be passed on to offspring. These traits can then be subject to natural selection and other evolutionary mechanisms.
Can some mutations actually be beneficial to certain plants?
Yes because evolution is based off of mutations makeing them improve or gain better traits and abillitys
Relate genetic variation and mutations to each other?
mutations cause genetic variation, and vice-versa. If there is a genetic variation (or lack of one), then this can effect the severity of the mutation.
What best explains why mutations cannot cause evolution?
Biology has catalogued many traits produced by point mutations (changes at precise positions in an organism's DNA)--bacterial resistance to antibiotics, for example.To say otherwise is incorrect.But mutations do cause evolution.

How does chance play a role in evolution?
Evolution is caused by adaptations (favorable traits) that sometimes come from mutations. Mutations happen by chance, and this is how chance plays a role in evolution.
What is interpersonal trait?
Interpersonal traits are traits relating to how people relate to one another. Some interpersonal traits are temperament, character, and morals.
