Enhanced Physical Ability, that's not to hard, haha.
Radiation.
Nuclear radiation can cause genetic mutations in our DNA, which can cause cancers. If the genetic mutations occur in the germ cells, then our gametes (sperm and egg cells) could have genetic mutations that could be passed on to our offspring. Also, if radiation levels are high enough, people can get radiation sickness, which can be fatal.
Mutations are a rare but ordinary occurance in DNA RNA replication. Radiation and chemical damage.
DNA mutations can lead to genetic disorders, diseases, or even the death of an organism. Which of the following factors is most likely to cause a mutation in DNA?
Since mutations are usually caused by radiation, I would say people have more mutations. A lot of what we use everyday causes radiation. Cell phones, computers, etc.
radiation
Things that cause mutations such as heat, radiation, etc..
It's mutations.
While this question should be recategorized because external stimuli do not cause the mutations that result in hemophilia, there are many types of radiation that can cause gene mutations as well as chemical exposure. For example sun light is UV light radiation wich can cause mutations (for example the mutations that result in skin cancer).
Yes they are. Simpler life forms have more resistance. Radiation catalyses mutations in the DNA sequences of organisms. This is why you can get cancer from radiation (e.g. skin cancer from ultra-violet radiation) because cancer is caused by mutations in multicellular organisms.
mutation are caused by radiation and are 99.9% harmful
There is no predetermined rate at which UV radiation causes mutations. However, mutations are more likely if:the organism is closer to the radiation sourceThe radiation source is very strongThere is long term exposure
