nonsense mutation-a sequence forms a stop codon to early forming a gene that doesnt work

missense mutation-a nucleotide replaces another which can cause a different effect or in some cases codes for the same effect so nothing happens

Name two major types of mutations What do they have in common How are they different Give an example of each?

Gene and chromosomal; both change DNA sequence that affects genetic information. Gene mutations involve a change in one ore several nucleotides in a single gene, whereas chromosomal mutations involve changes in the number or structure of whole chromosomes


Two causes of mutation?

Two types of mutations are Point Mutations and the other is Frameshift Mutations. Piont mutations include; deletions, insertions, and substitutions. These mutations casue a slight change in the amino acid usually resulting in a change in one amino acid. The second type, frameshift mutations involve many changes and almost always results in many changes in the codons.
