What is muations?
There is no such word as "muation".
What are the types of mutations that can occur?
nonsense mutation, missense mutation, frameshift muation, deletion or addition mutation
What is a silent muation?
A silent mutation is a type of genetic mutation that does not result in any change to the amino acid sequence of a protein due to redundancy in the genetic code. These mutations often occur in the third position of a codon and are therefore considered "silent" because they do not affect the resulting protein.
What are the 4 types of mutations that can occur?
Insertion & deletion also known as frameshift mutationsubstitutionduplication mutationtranslocationGlad we could assist.
Why is Godzilla so popular in Japan?
Radiation caused genetic muation and increased his size
What is the difference between a nonsense mutation and a frame shift mutation?
A point mutation is where a single letter is the only thing changed in the DNA sequence. Lets say your phone number (or DNA code) was 483-1839 and you mistakely told someone that your phone number was 483-1835. that one digit is enough to make that person dial the wrong number (or cause a mutation in DNA.) For example suppose your DNA sequence was ACT GCT, a point mutation would just be a change in one of those bases (or letters), so it could end up something like : ACT ACT.EX: GTA CTG CAA-----> (point mutation) -----> GTA GTG CAAA frameshift mutation is generally much more serious and will cause a change all the way down a DNA sequence, making each codon (or every group of three bases) a different sequence, not just in one point or base like a point mutation, that would only slightly change the sequence of a single codon. A frameshift mutation happens not when a DNA base is simply changed, but when a whole base is added or deleted from the sequence of DNA. For example lets suppose your DNA sequence is GTA CCT AGG. In a frameshift mutation a whole base would be added somewhere in that sequence, making it look something like this: GTAT CCT AGG. Since it is impossible though to have 4 bases in a codon, your body would automatically shift every letter down one, even to the next codon in the sequence, to make room for this new base. In the end the final product would look something like this: GTA TCC TAG (with the left over G being the first base in the next codon, and so on).EX: CAG TTC CTG GAA -----> (frameshift muation) -----> CAG TTA CCT GGAAs you can see the frameshift mutation would leave the mutated DNA vastly more different from its parent DNA (that it was replicated from), then a point mutation would, though in both cases the DNA would still be different/mutated. This is because the codons would be more considerbaly changed with the frameshift (where now the sequence in every codon in different), rather than in a point mutation (where only one of the codons would be different).Hope this helps all you HS Bio 1 people like myself out there, or anyone else studying this subject.-- K.J.S
