it is a mutation like PLX4032 it reverses the effects of a mutation found in certain tumors
What effects can mutation have a virus?
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.
What are the signs of a mutation?
Abnormal cell growth and foreign side effects.
What is pleiotropism?
it refers to gene or mutation that has multiple effects like polyphenotype
Which of the following situations is most usual for a dominant allele that results in severe effects in the offspring?

What could be a beneficial effect of a mutation?
gene mutation has many profound and long lasting effects. for starter mutation can change course of evolution. it also can create many heridatory deseases. it can make some desease cousing organisms to become drug resistant. gene mutation can create new species.
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.
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.
How would an organism most likely be affected by a DNA mutation?
An organism could be affected by a DNA mutation in various ways, such as changes in physical characteristics, susceptibility to diseases, or altered metabolic processes. The specific effects depend on the location and nature of the mutation in the organism's DNA.
What is isogenic mutation?
Isogenic mutation refers to a genetic mutation that occurs in an organism's DNA, resulting in a change in a specific gene or genes. It is called isogenic because it affects only a specific gene in an otherwise identical genetic background. This type of mutation is often used in research to study the effects of a single gene mutation without any additional genetic variability.
