What is one way that changes occur in a DNA Sequence?
Mutations (point mutations, inversions, translocations...) cause changes in DNA Simply stated, a mistake made while DNA copies causes changes in DNA.
Changes in a DNA sequence caused by substitution of one nucleotide for another?
Point mutations
Name for a sequence of DNA bases that code for one protein?
Name for a sequence of DNA bases that code for one protein?
One of the most powerful agents of genetic change?
is mutation. Mutations can occur spontaneously, through errors in DNA replication, or can be induced by environmental factors such as radiation or chemical exposure. These changes in DNA sequence can lead to alterations in the genetic code and can have a wide range of effects, from beneficial adaptations to harmful disorders.
What is often used to distinguish one sequence of DNA form another by comparing sequence strands at specific loci?
DNA Fingerprinting

Why can you predict the base sequence of one strand in a molecule of DNA if you know the sequence of the others strand?
in DNA, each base pairs up with only one other base
One species DNA differs from others in it's?
It's base sequence
Change in the nucleotide sequence of DNA?
Mutation. Either exchanging a Purine with another Purine, Pyrimidin with another Pyrimidin, or completely exchanging a Purine with a Pyrimidin or vice versa. Point- or Frameshift-Mutation.
What is recombinant sequence?
A recombinant sequence of DNA is a sequence of DNA that comes from more than one source. Examples of recombinant DNA are plasmids that are put into bacteria. The plasmid comes from the bacteria (or a bacteria at least) but a target gene has been added (say the lac operon gene that allows bacteria to thrive on lactose), this plasmid is now a recombinant DNA sequence.
