It is possible for a point mutation to not change the sequence of amino acids in a protein. This will result in the protein being unchanged and will not affect the phenotype.
A mutation in a gene may not always affect an individuals phenotype because the mutation may occur in a non-coding region. This is known as silent mutation.
mutation in exons are less likely to affect phenotype then mutation in introns because mutaion in exons are silent mutation
it is impossible because the phenotype and genotype are different this is out of chapter 10 in the biology book on page 336
no not always due to some phenotypes having more than one gene sequence that affects it, eg; the base sequence for a certain enzyme's synthesis could be TTT but by substituting a T with a C to make TTC in mutation could still be a code for the same enzyme...
The answer is a mutation. Its a mutation because a mutation can cause an organism to be deformed an in some cases due to the deformation it will not be able to feed or defend for it self. For example, if a Giraffe were to be born with a short neck it would not be able to feed because trees are tall
It's a genotype. The phenotype is a physical manifestation of the genotype, which means that it's what happens on the outside because an organism has the gene. An example of a phenotype would be if someone had blue eyes or something. The genotype is the two-letter abbreviation thingy.
ACTUALLY IT IS PHENOTYPE BECAUSE THE QUESTION IS TALKING ABOUT INHERITED APPEARENCE NOT GENOTYPE BECAUSE GENOTYPE IS THE INHERITED COMBINATION OF ALLELES. evolution is the wrong answer the real answer is phenotype the appearance of they parents through generations- evolution i think you're wrong because phenotype is the organism's appearance, in another word what it look like. i think that the real answer is GENOTYPE because genotype inherited combination of alleles (your genes) actually, it is phenotype :) IT IS PHENOTYPE! I JUST DID HOMEWORK ON IT. Defiantly phenotype, I just did homework on it also
Phenotype is the displayed characteristics of the organism, as opposed to the genotype, which is the gene sequence of the organism. Phenotype is important because it includes everything that the organism can do. Whether a plant is pink or red, an example of phenotype, can influence whether or not a bee will be attracted and pollenate it. The presence of cystic fibrosis, a debilitating disorder in humans, is caused by genotype but expressed through phenotype, and can be the difference between death at twenty or a long life to eighty.
Mutation is abrupt change in the sequence in the DNA. This is routine phenomena. Most are useless to the nature and are eliminated. Only rarely, but very importantly this phenomena leads to formation of the new trends in the organism and at times form the new organism.
Because the chemicals inside the beneficial burn away the organism.
It only affects the offspring of the organism.
A frame-shift mutation has greater potential to affect the evolution of a population because it can alter the entire reading frame of a gene, leading to a non-functional protein. This can result in significant changes to an organism's phenotype, potentially affecting its survival and reproduction, and thereby influencing the population's evolution.
