Answer 1
All DNA, somatic and germ line, mutates at an average rate in humans. So, one picks up deletions, neutral base pair mutations and even more serious frame shift mutations. All mutations are just a discrepancy, copying error, in the DNA replication.
Answer 2
Another important change progressing with age is the length of the telomeric sequences. Telomeric sequences (which, if I am remembering correctly, is made up of something akin to LTR, or long, terminal repeat sequences) are sequences of nucleotide basepairs at the ends of the chromosomes. They do not code for proteins, but 'tie together' the ends of the molecular huge double helix that is a chromosome, and presumably play some role in preventing the random fusion of separate chromosomes. With each cell mitotic division in somatic tissues, a chromosome may lose a part of its telomeric sequences. If no telomeric bands remain, a chromosome may start to 'unravel', leading to apoptosis, the self-destruction of the cell. It is speculated that the loss of telomeric sequences plays some part in the aging process.

Can you change the DNA so you can have twins?
yes, if you can change the sex of a child then you can duplicate them as well look up meiosis and fertilization yes if you can change their sex then you can dupilicate them by allow the cell to split google meiosis and fertilization to get the mor scientific answer for this case
A change in a sequence of DNA is called?
Any change in the sequence of DNA nucleotides is called mutation.
Does a DNA mutation always result in a change to the protein?
No, a DNA mutation does not always result in a change to the protein. Some mutations are silent and do not affect the protein's function.
Can a person change their DNA through any means?
No, a person cannot change their DNA through any means. DNA is the genetic code that determines an individual's traits and characteristics, and it remains constant throughout a person's life.
How does the process of DNA replication change when the nitrogenous base uracil replaces thymine?
When uracil replaces thymine in DNA replication, the enzyme responsible for copying DNA, called DNA polymerase, recognizes uracil as a normal base and incorporates it into the new DNA strand. This change does not affect the overall process of DNA replication, but it can lead to errors in the genetic code since uracil is not typically found in DNA.

When a person is a male then changes to female does the DNA change also?
nope,, his dna is still male dna because dna is unchangeable even if he change his genital. that's why dna can be used to identify an individual.
