Are gamete cells mutations and somatic cells mutations inheritable?
Since only gamete cells actually participate in the creation of a new organism, it is only the mutations in gamete cells which are inheritable; mutations in somatic cells are not inheritable.
What is example of an analogy in mutations?
Mutations are like typos in a book. Just like typos can change the meaning of a sentence, mutations can alter the genetic code, potentially leading to changes in an organism's traits or functions.
How does a mutation in a sex cell differ from a mutation in a non-sex cell?
Mutations in sex cells can be passed on to children. Mutations in sex cells only affect offspring. Mutations in sex cells do not affect the organism.
How does a mutation in a sex cell differ from a mutation is a non sex cell?
A mutation in a sex cell can be passed on to offspring and affect future generations, while a mutation in a non-sex cell generally only impacts the individual in which it occurs. Additionally, mutations in sex cells can lead to hereditary conditions, while mutations in non-sex cells are typically not passed on to offspring.
What type of point mutation is dwarfism?
Dwarfism can be caused by a variety of point mutations, including missense mutations that result in a non-functional protein, nonsense mutations that lead to premature termination of protein synthesis, or frameshift mutations that disrupt the reading frame of the gene.
Are all mutations bad.?
No not all mutations are bad there are good mutations and bad mutations
What types of external stimuli cause mutations?
While this question should be recategorized because external stimuli do not cause the mutations that result in hemophilia, there are many types of radiation that can cause gene mutations as well as chemical exposure. For example sun light is UV light radiation wich can cause mutations (for example the mutations that result in skin cancer).
What Mutation does not affect the offsping?
Somatic mutations are not passed on to offspring because they occur in non-reproductive cells. These mutations only affect the individual in which they occur, and are not transmitted to future generations.
What is an example of what a mutation can cause?
Mutations can cause diseases such as cancer
Are gamete cells mutations and somatic cells mutations inheritable?
Since only gamete cells actually participate in the creation of a new organism, it is only the mutations in gamete cells which are inheritable; mutations in somatic cells are not inheritable.
An example of all human cells and mutations?
Sickle-cell disease
What is example of an analogy in mutations?

Why are mutations more serious when they occure in a sex cell?
Mutations in sex cells are more serious because they are heritable and affect the next generation. Remember, though, that mutations in somatic cells can cause cancer and tumors but are non- heritable.
How does a mutation in a sex cell differ from a mutation in a non-sex cell?
Mutations in sex cells can be passed on to children. Mutations in sex cells only affect offspring. Mutations in sex cells do not affect the organism.
The substitution of one base for another during DNA replication is an example of what?
Mutations

What are the mutations in the G protein that causes Pseudohypoparathyroidism?
The mutations are in the Gs-alpha subunit ( for example, Arg485 to His) and leads to pseudohypoparathyroidism, also known as Albright Hereditary Osteodystrophy.
