gene mutation,
chromosomal abberations
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......
nonsense mutation, missense mutation, frameshift muation, deletion or addition mutation
From another angle: beneficial and detrimental.
An insertion/deletion event.
The sudden change in the genetic make up or genetic form of an individual is called gene mutation.
Insertion, Deletion and Frameshift mutation. These are the 3 basic types of mutation, however, there are other types of mutations: substitution, translocation, duplication, inversion, transversion and transition.
A deletion mutation can take genes away from a chromosome.
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
Four types of chromosomal mutations are Down syndrome (which is a mutation in which there are three copies of chromosome 21), Kinefelter Syndrome (which is a mutation in which a male has an extra X-chromosome), Turner Syndrome (which is a mutation in which a female is missing an X-chromosome), and Patau Syndrome (which is a mutation in which there are three copies of chromosome 13).
insertion and deletion
Mutation in fruit flies
Two types of gene mutations are chromosomal and point mutation. Chromosomal mutation alters a cell's chromosomes, while point mutation replaces single-base pair nucleotides with other nucleotides found in RNA or DNA.
