The three types of Mutations are:
Substitution
Deletion
Addition
For example:
Mutation stand to compare back to: ATG CAT AGG
Mutation#1: ATT CAT AGG
It is Substitution in this strand because the "G" was changed to a "T."
Mutation#2: ATG ATA GG
It is Deletion in this strand because the "A" was deleted.
Mutation#3: ATG CAT TAGG
It is Addition in this strand because another "G" was added to the end of the strand.

What are 3 types of mutations and what do they do?
The three different types of mutation are substitution, insertion, and deletion. They differ because deletion is missing a base, insertion has a base that was added, and substitution has a base that has been replaced.
Which types of mutation can add genes to a chromosomes?
insertion and deletion
What are the three things that mutation can cause?
A change in the DNA can cause three types of changes: a beneficial change (organism does better than others), a deadly change (kills the organism) or a neutral change (not better/not deadly).
What are the 4 types of mutations that can occur?
Insertion & deletion also known as frameshift mutationsubstitutionduplication mutationtranslocationGlad we could assist.
Define a genetic mutation and state the types of genetic mutations?
Point mutation: single nucleotide is replaced with another. ex: sickle cell anemia.
What are four types of chromosomal mutations?
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).
What are three types of chromosomal mutations?
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.
What are 3 types of mutations and what do they do?
The three different types of mutation are substitution, insertion, and deletion. They differ because deletion is missing a base, insertion has a base that was added, and substitution has a base that has been replaced.
What are four of chromosomal mutation?
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).
Name 2 major types of mutation?
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......
What are 3 types of mutation?
Three types of gene mutations are substitution, insertion, and deletion. Another gene mutation would be frame shift. All these mutations can cause deformities of the gene.
What are the major types of mutation event?
gene mutation, chromosomal abberations
What are the types of mutations that can occur?
nonsense mutation, missense mutation, frameshift muation, deletion or addition mutation
What are two types of mutation?
From another angle: beneficial and detrimental.
Which types of mutation can be add genes to a chromosome?
A deletion mutation can take genes away from a chromosome.
What is a mutation called that has no effect on an organism?
A point mutation, in which one nitrogen base in a codon is substituted for another, may have no effect on an organism. This is true if the base substitution does not change the amino acid that the codon represents, or if the mutation occurs in a non-critical location in the protein so that the protein's structure is not changed significantly and the protein is still able to function.
Which types of mutation affects more genes a gene mutation or a chromosomal?
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
