They create genetic variations.
What are some general effects of a mutation?
Some general effects of a mutation are changes in DNA/RNA sequences and plausibly alteration of the product of a gene or the prevention of a gene from functioning properly.

Does not describe the possible effects of a mutation?
A mutation can lead to various effects on an organism, ranging from neutral to detrimental or beneficial changes. Neutral mutations may have no impact on the organism's phenotype, while harmful mutations can result in diseases or developmental issues. Conversely, beneficial mutations may enhance an organism's survival or adaptability in its environment. The specific effects depend on factors like the type of mutation, its location in the genome, and the organism's ecological context.
What do you call a change in the genetic code?
A change in the genetic code is called a mutation. This can result from errors during DNA replication, exposure to mutagens such as chemicals or radiation, or spontaneous changes. Mutations can have various effects on an organism, ranging from no consequences to causing genetic disorders.
What describes a mutation that occurs within a gene?
A mutation that occurs within a gene is known as a gene mutation. This type of mutation can involve changes in the DNA sequence, such as substitutions, insertions, or deletions of nucleotides. These alterations can affect the protein encoded by the gene, potentially altering its function, stability, or expression levels. Depending on the nature of the mutation, it may lead to neutral, beneficial, or harmful effects on the organism.
Is a beneficial mutation always considered beneficial in the context of evolution?
No, a beneficial mutation may not always be considered beneficial in the context of evolution because its effects can change over time or in different environments.
