When one base is changed to another at a single position in the DNA sequence of a gene a mutation has occurred?

No that occurs all the time through translocation. It is not a mutation.

Name two major types of mutations?
Frameshift mutations and Point mutations. The difference between the two are that point mutations occur at a single point in the DNA sequence and frameshift mutations shift the "reading frame" of the genetic message.
What is a change in nucleotide-base sequence of a gene or DNA molecule?
A change in a nucleotide base sequence is known as a point mutation, this is when one of the bases(A,T,C,G) is swapped with another. This causes for the amino acid to change, which can change the function of the amino acid chain.
A mutation involving a chain in the base sequence of DNA?
You might be referring to point mutation. This is when one nucleotide in a gene is changed and causes many irregularities in the cell.
Change in the nucleotide sequence of DNA?
Mutation. Either exchanging a Purine with another Purine, Pyrimidin with another Pyrimidin, or completely exchanging a Purine with a Pyrimidin or vice versa. Point- or Frameshift-Mutation.
Which type of mutation occurs when one base replaces another base in a DNA condon?
Substitution.

What would be the effect of a mutation that changed the c of the anticodon to a g?
The effect of the mutation is; there would be another amino acid that may form due to the change in sequence of the anticodon. change in the sequence of anticodon may result to different amino acid that may form.

What change in the sequence of nitrogen bases in genes?
Mutation. . Either exchanging a Purine with another Purine, Pyrimidin with another Pyrimidin, or completely exchanging a Purine with a Pyrimidin or vice versa. Point- or Frameshift-Mutat
Where could you make mistakes in recombining DNA and what would the results be?
Recombination is a processes that results in changes to a genome.A mutation is a change in the nucleotide sequence. A mutation in a key gene may cause the cell to die if the protein coded is defective.Recombination is a large scale rearrangement of the DNA molecule. It could happen through exchange of segments of homologous chromosomes during meiosis or by moving a segment from one position to another within a chromosome or between chromosomes.All events that are not deadly may to contribute to the evolution of the genome.Recombination is a processes that results in changes to a genome.A mutation is a change in the nucleotide sequence.

What is the position-to-term rule of 2 5 8?
1 2 3 4 5 2 5 8 11 14 ... If this is the sequence, the position-to-term rule is 3n-1. However, it could be another sequence depending on the rest of the terms.
What does a DNA molecule look like with a mutation?
A mutation is a change in the sequence of nucleotides that make up DNA. Changes can cause a change in phenotype when they change a gene or regulatory sequence, but can be silent mutations when a stretch of so called 'junk DNA' is affected. A mutation can be either a spontaneous occurrence or induced by environmental factors such as free radicals / ionising radiation. Mutation is considered to be the driving force behind evolution, regardless of where it all originates from: evolution (change) through mutation is a fact.

Mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called?
Point Mutation is the mutation that involves a single or few nucleotide. This type of mutation replaces a single nucleotide to another.
