What causes mutation in cells?
DNA polymerase
What are the causes of mutation?
Mutation is caused when chunks of chromosomes cut taken or fall off. So the chromosome with the DNA causes a mutation which sometimes is helpful but mosty hard to live with.
What mutation causes the DNA replication to stop early?
Nonsense
How do mutations occur in an organism?
In the base sequence of the DNA part of the DNA changes which causes a change in the whole DNA which is called a mutation.
How can a mutation in DNA base sequence causes a change in trait?
Some mutations produce new traits that can help an organism survive.
Mutation that occurs when a single base is added or deleted from DNA causes a shift in the reading of codons by one base?
Frameshift Mutation
What are the disadvantages of radio activity to humans'?
Radioactivity causes the destruction (mutation) of DNA in our cells, when these cells multiply they contain the mutated DNA which causes irregularities and cancer.
When a change in the DNA causes the DNA to be read incorrectly that is called a?
When a change in the DNA causes it to be read incorrectly, that is called a mutation. Mutations can lead to alterations in the protein produced by the gene, potentially resulting in changes to an organism's traits or functions. Depending on the nature of the mutation, it can be harmful, beneficial, or neutral.
Does a DNA mutation always result in a change to the protein?
No, a DNA mutation does not always result in a change to the protein. Some mutations are silent and do not affect the protein's function.
What are some of the causes of genetic mutation?
DNA fails to copy accurately and external influences can create mutation
What type of mutation causes sickle-cell anemia?
it is caused by substitution in your DNA and causes a harmful change the only benifet from this is protection against malaria
What is the natural causes of mutations?
1.)Mutations can be inherited. This means if a parent has a mutation in his/her DNA, then the mutation is passed on to the child.2.)Mutations can be acquired. This happens when a mistake accurs when a cell copies its DNA.3.)Mutations can occur by a hidden gene. This happens when your ancestor(for example, "grandma") has the mutation and that mutation is passed on to every other girl(for example), then the girl will get the mutation.
