∙ 10y agoThe plant's roots would probably get more water and sunlight than longer roots do because it is higher to the surface of the soil so the two sources for survival reaches the roots faster.

∙ 9y agoIf a plant has a genetic mutation that results in shorter roots, it may not survive. Sometimes long roots are necessary for the plant to acquire water and nutrients.

What type of mutation could result in a much shorter protein than the original gene product?
the mutation can be a deletion one or even code for a stop, alternatly if can change the stop code and make a longer protein
How does a mutation occur?
A mutation is a change from the expected nucleotide sequence of DNA. It can happen when nucleotide bases are duplicated or deleted from the sequence.
What might happen if the order of the base pairs of the DNA molecule were changed?
you get a mutation which could be good/bad/ or neutral, depends on the location
Genetic disorders are caused by?
Genetic Disorders are caused By a change in a person's DNA. Recessive alleles is the most human genetic disorder.
What is a change in the sequence of bases in DNA molecules called?
The change in the order of the bases in a DNA molecule is called a mutation. Such changes may happen because of damage to genomes, replication errors, or insertion or deletion of nucleotide bases.

Change in genetic material of an organism from one genrartion to another?
When mutations happen, they cause the alteration of genetic material.

If genetic mutation almost always leads to sterilization and death then how can evolution be true?
Genetic mutation does not always lead to sterilization as you point out. This however is not the way evolution happens. Evolution occurs mainly through small adaptive changes over a long period of time that are not mutations. Evolution does not happen suddenly.
Are super heros like Superman real?
yes if they create a mutation process that alters the genetic transformation in the body cells at birth, it could possibly happen.
What might happen to a plant that has genetic mutations that results in shorter root?
The plant's roots would probably get more water and sunlight than longer roots do because it is higher to the surface of the soil so the two sources for survival reaches the roots faster.
When did Mutation Nation happen?
Mutation Nation happened in 1991.
What causes genetic disorders are permanent changes in the DNA sequence?
Bike riding drunk. You will fall and and hit your head on the same rock your bike hit. This did happen to my uncle.
A mutation occurs in an eye cell of a fully grown monkey what will most likely happen to the monkey?
This depends on what kind of mutation occurs. You don't say what the mutation/result of the mutation is, so who knows what will happen to the monkey
