The DNA sequence of a gene changed from AACTTG to AACATG. What kind of mutation occurred.?
The DNA sequence of gene that change AACTTG to AACATG are called missense mutation. This is known as a process.
Which kind of mutation is most likely to lead to a new trait in an organism?
A point mutation, such as a substitution or insertion of a single base pair in the DNA sequence, is most likely to lead to a new trait in an organism by altering the protein structure and function. These mutations can result in new protein variants that may exhibit different characteristics or functions, leading to the emergence of a novel trait.
Why do eukaryotes have introns in DNA?
As you might know, introns DNA is something you can called 'Junk Fragments'. It didn't contain any information. So its function as a protection to the coding fragment (exon...maybe i misspell it ). DNA is subjected to many kind of mutation caused by chemical compounds or physical cause (gamma rays, for example). With Intron, when there's a mutation, there's a high probability that the one which subjected to the mutation is intron not exon. This way, eukaryote cells might survive from genetic mutation. Human has a large number of intron in one gene. It cause human to survive from many kind of mutation.
What changes within a kind of organism caused by variations in a gene pool?
Changes in the gene pool of a population can lead to variations in physical traits, behavior, and physiological characteristics within a species. This can result in adaptations that improve the organism's chances of survival and reproduction in its environment. Over time, these variations can lead to the evolution of distinct populations or even new species.
A chromosome's gene sequence that was abcdefg before damage and abfedcg after is an example of?
This kind of chromsomal mutation is called an inversion.The chromsomeome has broken in two places, between b&c and f&g. The fragment cdef has then been inserted in the reverse order, or inverted.
The DNA sequence of a gene changed from AACTTG to AACATG. What kind of mutation occurred.?
The DNA sequence of gene that change AACTTG to AACATG are called missense mutation. This is known as a process.
Why can recombinant DNA be expressed in any kind of organism even if it contains DNA from another species?
No, not every gene is transferable. It takes a bit of knowledge about what a particular gene codes for, and where it would correspond in the second organism.
What kind of organism is a corn plant with a jellyfish gene that allows it to glow in the dark?
The corn plant with a jellyfish gene that allows it to glow in the dark is a genetically modified organism (GMO). The jellyfish gene encodes for a green fluorescent protein (GFP) that causes the plant to emit light under certain conditions.
Which kind of selection eliminates extreme phenotypes?
disruptive selection
Which kind of mutation has greater potential to affect the evolution of a population Explain?
A frame-shift mutation has greater potential to affect the evolution of a population because it can alter the entire reading frame of a gene, leading to a non-functional protein. This can result in significant changes to an organism's phenotype, potentially affecting its survival and reproduction, and thereby influencing the population's evolution.
Is any change in a kind of organism over time?
Yes, evolution is the change in heritable characteristics of a population over successive generations. This change is driven by natural selection, genetic drift, mutation, and gene flow.
What kind of mutation is more likely to result in a nonfunctional protein?
A frameshift mutation, where nucleotides are inserted or deleted in a gene sequence, is more likely to result in a nonfunctional protein because it disrupts the reading frame of the gene, leading to a completely different amino acid sequence. This can have a significant impact on the structure and function of the resulting protein.
What kinds of somatic cell gene mutations can frequently lead to the first stages of cancer?
Proto-oncogene is the kind of somatic cell gene mutation that can lead to first stages of cancer. Proto-oncogene can lead to cellular transformation.
What kind of mutation is a tumor?
it is a mutation like PLX4032 it reverses the effects of a mutation found in certain tumors
Which kind of mutation is most likely to lead to a new trait in an organism?
A point mutation, such as a substitution or insertion of a single base pair in the DNA sequence, is most likely to lead to a new trait in an organism by altering the protein structure and function. These mutations can result in new protein variants that may exhibit different characteristics or functions, leading to the emergence of a novel trait.
What kind of mutation causes a four leaf clover?
xx and xy genetic mutation.
What kind of pathogen causes Cystic Fibrosis?
Cystic Fibrosis is caused by a genetic mutation in the CFTR gene. This mutation leads to the production of thick, sticky mucus in the lungs and other organs. It is not caused by a specific pathogen, but individuals with Cystic Fibrosis are more susceptible to respiratory infections.
