How many nucleotides would cause a frame shift mutation?
Adding or subtracting just one nucleotide would cause a frame shift mutation.
A change in the genetic material of a cell is called?
Cancer- certain mutations (changes) in a cell's genetic material may cause that cell to reproduce with out control.
A new mutation in mice cause the coast to be twice as normal In what environment would this mutation be helpful why?
New mutation in mice causes the coast to be normal in today's world. This is a well ask question.
What would most likely cause a new genetic defect to appear in a gene pool?
Mutation .
Will a point mutation cause the cell to make an incomplete polypeptide if the mutation results in a stop codon?
Yes, a point mutation will cause the cell to make an incompelete polypeptide chain that is non-functional, if the mutation results in a stop codon. This type of a mutation is also called as the Nonsense Mutation.
What ten causes of mutation are there?
you cause it cause you are weird
Can mutation cause evolution?
not by itself
How would a protein be changed if a mutation caused a base to be added?
A mutation in which an extra nitrogen base is added is called a frameshift mutation. The rest of the sequence after the mutation will code for different amino acids, which will result in the alteration of the protein. Frameshift mutations cause severe genetic disorders.
What can a genetic mutation cause?
A genetic mutation can cause a variation, which may be harmless, or may be harmful, depending on where on the DNA molecule it occurs.
A point mutation will cause the cell to make an incomplete polypeptide if the mutation results in?
codon
What is an example of what a mutation can cause?
Mutations can cause diseases such as cancer
What factor would cause a mutation that would cause an allele frequency to increase?
An increase in allele frequency can occur due to factors such as genetic drift, gene flow from other populations, natural selection favoring that allele, or a genetic mutation that confers a selective advantage.
