A mutation is a change in the DNA sequence of an organism, which can result in alterations to the characteristics or traits of the organism. Mutations can occur spontaneously or be induced by various factors such as chemicals or radiation.
Polyploidy mutation is a type of mutation that results in an organism having more than two complete sets of chromosomes. This can lead to increased genetic diversity and potentially new traits in the organism.
A mistake made during copying of genetic information is called a
A mutation
Evolution is the process through which populations of organisms change over generations through the transmission of heritable traits, resulting in the development of new species from common ancestors. It is driven by mechanisms such as natural selection, genetic drift, mutation, and gene flow.
Yes, gene mutation within a species is considered part of microevolution. Microevolution refers to small changes in the gene pool of a population over a short period of time, such as mutations, genetic drift, and natural selection, that can lead to changes in the traits of a population.
genetic disorder
The only way to become a mutant is via a mutation, but a mutation does not guarantee a unique phenotype. (I'm assuming, here, that you're using a biological definition of "mutant" and not a more fanciful definition.)
mutation: a change in the sequence of DNA to cause a unusal trait
Polyploidy mutation is a type of mutation that results in an organism having more than two complete sets of chromosomes. This can lead to increased genetic diversity and potentially new traits in the organism.
Rapid adaption by mutation and natural selection of the virus. Take the viruses surface identification proteins. they change rapidly due to mutation and those that best avoid detection by the body go on to make copies of themselves. The very definition of evolution.
"Is" is not the best definition of sublime.
Long time = evolution. Short time = mutation.
Selective reverse mutation refers to a process in which a specific mutation that had previously occurred in an organism is corrected or reverted back to the original DNA sequence. This can happen naturally or can be induced by various genetic or environmental factors.
A class 1 mutation typically refers to a type of genetic mutation that results in a change in the amino acid sequence of a protein. This type of mutation is considered more severe as it directly affects the structure and function of the protein. Class 1 mutations can lead to various genetic disorders and diseases.
The offspring will have abnormal eyes--APEX
That species would have it's best chance of survival as a result of a mutation that has a high adaptive value that occurs in its gametes.
