What is a cellular disease?
A cellular disease is either a mutation of the DNA cells or a overload of cells in one particular disease
What could be a harmful mutation?
A mutation in a gene that would predispose someone to a deadly disease, such as breast or ovarian cancer.
What type of disease is when one cell mutates?
it's normal for cells to mutate. Mutation is what made evolution possible. Of course you should not get enough mutation to get cancer. Mutation can also cause disease and cancer, so it can also be a bad thing.
What is dominant negative mutation?
A negative mutation is one which is harmful to the organism. The result of a negative mutation is a non-sense protein. Examples of negative mutations include:a frame shift mutation - codons are read wrongan insertion mutation - insertion of a sequence of extra nucleotidesa deletion mutation - deletion of a chain of nucleotidesa non-sense mutation - results in the creation of a non-sense proteina transition mutation - exchange of purines to pyrimidines thus changing the nucleotide sequence and resulting in a mutation.
