Why are most mutations in eukaryotes recessive?

Most mutations in eukaryotes are recessive because they typically involve changes in a single gene, and the presence of a normal copy of the gene can often mask the effects of the mutated gene. This means that the mutated gene is only expressed when both copies of the gene are mutated, resulting in a recessive trait.


What is the new mRNA stand produced by this mutated gene?

The specific sequence of the new mRNA strand produced by a mutated gene will depend on the nature of the mutation. Mutations can cause changes in the coding region of the gene, leading to alterations in the mRNA sequence and potentially affecting the resulting protein or gene function. Further analysis and sequencing of the mutated gene would be required to determine the exact mRNA sequence.


What does GM mean in science?

GM in science stands for genetic modification.


What is the most mutated country?

There is no single "most mutated" country. Mutation rates can vary in different populations due to factors such as genetic diversity, environmental exposures, and healthcare infrastructure. Additionally, mutations occur spontaneously and are not tied to a specific geographical location.


Why is Huntington's disease dominant in inheritance patterns?

Huntington's disease is dominant in inheritance patterns because only one copy of the mutated gene is needed to develop the disease. This means that if a person inherits the mutated gene from just one parent, they will likely develop Huntington's disease.
