What is an example of micro evolution in organisms?
example of an micro-evolution in an organism?
Are all mutation harmful?
Mutations that succeed [are beneficial] provide Evolution, so not at all.
Do neutral mutations affect biodiversity?
Type your answer here... no, neutral mutations do not affect biodiversity as they are a simple change which does not affect the organism in any way
Why are micro-deletions and micro-insertions difficult to diagnosis using karyotyping?
Because only the chromosomes can be seen in a karyotype, and microdeletions/insertions are mutations at the molecular level, it is virtually impossible to detect such mutations at the chromosomal level.
True or false about gene mutations are Point mutations affect just one nucleotide?
yes
Why do mutations that occur in the skin or nervous system tend to have little effect on the evolution of a species?
Most mutations that occur have a neutral effect, or none at all, so they would not affect evolution. Organisms with mutations that cause detrimental impact typically will not survive; therefore, they will not reproduce, and the mutation will not be passed on, so the species will not be affected overall. Beneficial mutations are typically the only mutations that will affect an organism's posterity and the evolution of its species, but good mutations are very rare. This is why most mutations have little effect on the evolution of a species.
Evaluate the significance of mutations and repair of mutations to the evolution of sexual reproduction?
evaluate the significance of mutations and repairof mutations to the evolution of sexual reproduction

What is an example of micro evolution?
You are an example of human micro-evolution as the population of humans has changed allele frequency over time. Micro-evolution is just evolution; change over time.
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 a macro evolution?
Micro-evolution is not only a part of macro-evolution, it is the same mechanism as macro-evolution. Macro-evolution includes speciation, as a result of continuing micro-evolution.
What is mirco evolution?
micro evolution refers as evolution occurred during biochemical synthesis in primitive earth as for evolution of essential micro and bio molecules.
What is an example of micro-evolution?
Insects have evolved resistance to pesticides is one.
Is 'mutations are beneficial to organisms' a true statement about mutations?
Usually mutations have deleterious effects to the organism, but occasionally there are beneficial mutations. Such mutations drive evolution.
Are all mutation harmful?
Mutations that succeed [are beneficial] provide Evolution, so not at all.
How does a mutation in a sex cell differ from a mutation in a non-sex cell?
Mutations in sex cells can be passed on to children. Mutations in sex cells only affect offspring. Mutations in sex cells do not affect the organism.
What are the divisions of evolution?
Evolution is sometimes described as macro-evolution, which is the long-term evolution of an entire new species, and micro-evolution, which is largely to do with less significant evolutionary changes within a species. Many creationists accept the existence of micro-evolution, but say that macro-evolution does not occur.
