Which mutation occurs when one nucleotide base in replaced with another base?
A point mutation occurs when one nucleotide base is replaced with another base. This can lead to changes in the amino acid sequence during protein synthesis, potentially affecting the protein's function.
When one base is changed to another at a single position in the DNA sequence of a gene a mutation has occurred?
Yes, such a mutation is called a point mutation. Point mutations involve the replacement of a single nucleotide base with another in the DNA sequence. These mutations can have various effects on the gene and the resulting protein it codes for.
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless what occurs?
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless mutation or genetic recombination occurs, introducing variation among the offspring.
Can a point mutation result in a frameshift mutation?
Yes, a point mutation can result in a frameshift mutation if it occurs in a coding region of a gene and disrupts the reading frame of the genetic code.
Who does somatic mutation affect?
A somatic mutation is one that occurs in any body cell with the exception of the gametes (sperm and eggs). A somatic mutation cannot be passed on to offspring, so it affects only the person with the mutation.
How can a mutation ouccur?
mutation occurs throughchange in structural chromosomes.change in numerical chromosomes.gene mutation
what type of mutation occurs when a nucleotide is left out?
deletion mutation
Which mutation occurs when one nucleotide base in replaced with another base?
A point mutation occurs when one nucleotide base is replaced with another base. This can lead to changes in the amino acid sequence during protein synthesis, potentially affecting the protein's function.
Moving fragments of DNA from one organism and inserting then into another organism?
if the mutation occurs in the autosomes, the trait is not passed
A mutation occurs in an eye cell of a fully grown monkey what will most likely happen to the monkey?
This depends on what kind of mutation occurs. You don't say what the mutation/result of the mutation is, so who knows what will happen to the monkey
When one base is changed to another at a single position in the DNA sequence of a gene a mutation has occurred?
Yes, such a mutation is called a point mutation. Point mutations involve the replacement of a single nucleotide base with another in the DNA sequence. These mutations can have various effects on the gene and the resulting protein it codes for.
What is one or two nucleotides that are changed in a certain mutation?
In a point mutation, a change in a single nucleotide can lead to a specific mutation. For example, a substitution mutation occurs when one nucleotide is swapped for another, such as A to T or C to G. This change can result in different amino acids being coded for in the protein sequence.
Which of the following situations is most usual for a dominant allele that results in severe effects in the offspring?
The trait occurs by mutation.
What occurs when a mutation is caused by deletion?
Replication
A mutation that occurs at a specific location within a nucleotide sequence is called a?
Point mutation and it can be effective or silent depend upon at the site of codon
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless what occurs?
Asexual reproduction results in identical offspring unless mutation or genetic recombination occurs, introducing variation among the offspring.
Can a point mutation result in a frameshift mutation?
Yes, a point mutation can result in a frameshift mutation if it occurs in a coding region of a gene and disrupts the reading frame of the genetic code.
