What else can I help you with?
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
What is bigger DNA or nucleotide?
Clearly, a nucleus is much larger than a nucleotide. A nucleotide is essentially a molecule. Therefore, it can only me measured in molecular dimensions. The nucleus is the largest organelle within a eukaryotic cell.
What is the difference between an allele and a SNP?
An allele is a specific form of a gene, while a SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) is a variation in a single nucleotide within a gene. In other words, alleles are different versions of a gene, while SNPs are specific points of genetic variation within a gene.
Is substitution a type of gene mutation?
Yes, substitution is a type of gene mutation where one nucleotide is replaced by another in the DNA sequence.
What is the nucleic acid structures in order of size form largest to?
From largest to smallest, nucleic acid structures are organized as follows: chromosome, chromatin, DNA double helix, DNA strand, gene, and nucleotide.
How do you rank the hereditary components nucleotide gamete chromosome and gene from small to large?
nucleotide, gene, chromosome, gamete
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
What is the change in a gene at a single nucleotide pair?
A mutation.
A gene consists of how many nucleotide?
hundreds or thousands

How many nucleotide pairs in human gene?
3.4 billion
What are types of point mutation?
The types of point mutations are: base-pair substitution, insertions, deletions, and frameshift mutations. In base-pair substitution, one nucleotide and its corresponding partner are replaced with another pair of nucleotide. In insertion, nucleotide pairs are added to a gene. In deletion, nucleotide pairs are taken out of a gene. Frameshift mutation happens as a result of insertion or deletion when more or less than three (or a multiple of three) nucleotide pairs are added to or taken from a gene.
Is a homologous pair bigger than a gene?
yes and a genome is larger than both
What is the difference between an allele and a SNP?
An allele is a specific form of a gene, while a SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) is a variation in a single nucleotide within a gene. In other words, alleles are different versions of a gene, while SNPs are specific points of genetic variation within a gene.
What are three main types of gene mutations what happens in each gene?
The three main types of gene mutations are point mutations, insertion mutations, and deletion mutations. Point mutations involve changes to a single nucleotide base. Insertion mutations involve the addition of extra nucleotide bases. Deletion mutations involve the removal of nucleotide bases in a gene sequence.
Which of the following statements does not accurately describe DNA?
A change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene
What is a gene segment called in a DNA molecule?
Nucleotidehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleotide
