Certain mutations may persist even if they can be lethal because they may also provide some advantage or benefit to the organism. This advantage could help the organism survive and reproduce, allowing the mutation to be passed on to future generations despite the potential negative consequences. Additionally, some mutations may only be lethal in certain circumstances or at certain stages of development, allowing them to persist in a population.
What else can I help you with?
What are the five occupations that you think pose a risk of mutation and explain the reason for your choices?
6. Working in nuclear plants, mining, chemist, sandblasting, glass manufacturing the first one exposes you to radiation the others involve a lot of fumes that can be harmful when breathed in
What is a random change in DNA called?
A random change in DNA is called a mutation. Points: Mutation: A change in the DNA sequence that can occur spontaneously or due to environmental factors. Types: Mutations can be substitutions, insertions, deletions, or duplications. Effects: Mutations can be beneficial, neutral, or harmful to the organism.
Are mutations helpful or harmful to an organism?
Mutations are both! Mutations lead to genetic variation. (so does fertilization) It gives the organism greater chance of survival if the environment changes. Mutations could lead to different height or eye color etc. They could also lead to disadvantages as well. If the adaptation in an environment is tall and a mutation is made for short then the mutation isn't very advantagoes. If the environments adaptation is for an immunity to a chemical like pesticides vs bugs and a bug has an immunity due to mutation then it is beneficial
What do you think about the changes occurring due to mutation?
Mutations can lead to changes in an organism's traits, which can be beneficial, harmful, or have no effect. These changes are a natural part of evolution and can drive diversity in populations.
What is an example of a lethal mutation?
Albinism, where the animal (or person) has no melanin (color) in their skin or hair, so they sunburn easily and are prone to skin cancer. The irises of their eyes are pink, so their eyes are sun-sensitive. Animals with no coloring of their skin can not hide from predators, so they don't live long in the wild. I don't think albinism is technically a lethal mutation. I think an example of lethal mutation is the overo gene in horses. Two copies of it produce a foal that dies shortly after birth due to problems with its digestive system. Any mutation that causes termination of pregnancy is a lethal mutation.
What kind of mutations do you think would be harmful to an organism?
The majority of mutations that organisms get are harmful or neutral. Cancer is an example of a harmful mutation. So are certain genetic diseases and deformities, like an extra set of limbs.
What is the difference betweeen lethal and mortal?
I think that lethal is a bit more "tense" and strong than mortal.
How did the Indian python become endangered?
Because people think they are dangerous and lethal.
What effect can mutations have on viruses?
i think that most of the mutated genes have more then one thing wrong with them
What three things coud be lethal?
Anything in life can be lethal depending on how it is used or what happens. For example, think about the lethal nature of these three:a car - Car accidents happen every day.a tree - in windstorms they fall; and they attract lightninga flight of stairs - every day, people fall
What is the name of a incorrect DNA?
A common type of incorrect DNA is called a mutation. Mutations are changes in the DNA sequence that can occur due to various factors such as mistakes during DNA replication or exposure to mutagenic agents like radiation or certain chemicals. Mutations can lead to altered or faulty genetic information, potentially resulting in genetic disorders or other abnormalities.
Are jay lethal and randy savage father and son?
I think he is,because they sound the same,but they don't look the same
Why do you think in humans there are no viable trisomies of chromosome 1?
they are lethal and cause spontaneous abortion of the embryo early in development.

Can you think of some good mutations?
if you consider an animal turning out to be a different color then what its suppose to be, for the better like blending in to survive
Why DoesTNA Wrestler Shark Boy think he's Stone Cold?
He doesn't think he is Stone Cold...it is a spoof just like the one with Jay Lethal doing Randy Savage.
