UV rays. These cause thymine to form dimers in skin cell DNA.
Mutations. Exposure to radiation, certain chemicals, and viral infections all increase mutation rates.
UV rays and other radiation can indeed cause mutation.
It increases the odds of mutation.
Mutation rates can vary over time due to factors such as changes in population size, environmental pressures, and genetic mechanisms. However, for certain organisms and genetic regions, mutation rates may remain relatively constant over long periods of time. Overall, the expectation of constant mutation rates over time depends on the specific context and factors involved.
Radiation induced mutation (changes in DNA) is on a purely random basis (and so is ALMOST always detrimental).
as interest rates increase, demand for money increases.
A helpful mutation is called a beneficial mutation. These mutations can result in an improved or advantageous trait that increases an organism's chances of survival and reproduction.
A large population increases genetics variation. Mutation will also increase genetics variation.
The relationship between mutation rates and generation span is that they both have in impact on the Mitochondrial DNA diversity patterns,unexpected variation of mutation rate across species
Neurospora spores were treated with physical or chemical mutagens, such as X-rays or ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS), to increase the mutation rate in the laboratory. These mutagens induce changes in the DNA sequence, leading to the generation of genetic variations or mutations in the spores.
It's possible because they are x-rays.
Yes, inflation and increases in interest rates usually go hand-in-hand, though inflation is not the sole cause of an increase in interest rates
