What is the bacterium's genetic material called?
The bacterium's genetic material is called DNA, which stands for deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA contains the instructions for building and functioning of the organism.
What is it called when two populations share genetic information?
Genetic exchange between two populations is called gene flow. It can occur through interbreeding or the transfer of genetic material through other means, such as migration or hybridization. This exchange of genes can help increase genetic diversity within populations and lead to evolutionary changes.
What is spontaneous and induced mutations?
Spontaneous mutations occur naturally due to errors in DNA replication, exposure to mutagens, or changes in cellular processes. Induced mutations are deliberately caused by exposure to external factors such as radiation, chemicals, or certain drugs to study the effects of specific genetic changes.
Three mechanisms bacteria can produce genetic variation?
Genetic engineering involves the use of recombinant DNA technology, the process by which a DNA sequence is manipulated in vitro, thus creating recombinant DNA molecules that have new combinations of genetic material
What is it called when some organisms get all of their genetic material from just one parent organism?
This is called asexual reproduction, where offspring inherit all of their genetic material from a single parent. There is no genetic contribution from a second parent organism in this type of reproduction.
Any pernament change in the genetic material cell is called a?
so after it changes it is called a gene
A change in the genetic material of a cell is called?
Cancer- certain mutations (changes) in a cell's genetic material may cause that cell to reproduce with out control.
What is the nucleolus and genetic material called?
The nucleolus and genetic material form the nucleus.
What is the bacterium's genetic material called?
The bacterium's genetic material is called DNA, which stands for deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA contains the instructions for building and functioning of the organism.
What are the causes of PXE?
PXE is caused by changes in the genetic material, called mutations, that are inherited in either a dominant or recessive mode.
What is a virus that stores its genetic material as RNA called?
A virus that stores its genetic material as RNA is called a RETROVIRUS
What is the rearranging of genetic instructions called?
The rearranging of genetic instructions is called genetic recombination. This process occurs during meiosis, where homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, leading to genetic diversity in offspring.
What do you call a change in the genetic code?
A change in the genetic code is called a mutation. This can result from errors during DNA replication, exposure to mutagens such as chemicals or radiation, or spontaneous changes. Mutations can have various effects on an organism, ranging from no consequences to causing genetic disorders.
What is the special molecule that contains genetic material?
The special molecule that contains genetic material is called a chromosome.
What is the dormant state of a virus called?
The lysogenic cycle. This is when the virus incorporates its genetic material into the hosts genetic material and becomes what is called a provirus.
What genetic material are called mutations?
Sudden genetic change in the DNA of an organism called mutations.
Aspergillus flavus is a microscopic fungus that produces a toxic substance that can cause changes in the genetic material of a living liver cell What is this type of organism or substance called?
The type of organism is a fungus, Aspergillus flavus. The toxic substance it produces is called an aflatoxin. Aflatoxins are known carcinogens that can lead to changes in the genetic material of cells, particularly liver cells.
