Deletion
cystic fibrosis
Yes they can if you want to have AIDS!
sickle cell anaemia, thalassaemia
all of these (study island answer) or for regular info... the deletion of a gene caused by an error in chromosomal crossover, the duplication of a gene caused by an error in chromosomal crossover, a transposition that replicates and inserts new copies of itself within an organism's genome
1. (1) Produced by an abnormality in, or a mutation of the genetic code in a single gene; (2) Caused by several abnormal genes (Producing so-called polygenic diseases); or (3) Caused by the abnormal presence or absence of an entire chromosome or by alteration in the structure of chromosomes.
Huntington's disease is caused by a gene mutation, specifically in the HTT gene on chromosome 4.
Usher syndrome is a relatively rare genetic disorder caused by a mutation. The gene is not carried on one of the sex chromosomes (X or Y).
cancer
Neither. It is an extra #21 chromosome.
Yes, it is caused by a mutation in the gene for the protein CFTR.
a) mutation b) allele c) gene d) replicator
nodules
This type of mutation is called a translocation mutation. It involves the movement of a segment of DNA from one chromosome to another non-homologous chromosome, leading to potential genetic changes and abnormalities.
There are many thousands of different mutations.
No, Marfan syndrome is not a chromosomal abnormality. It is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the fibrillin-1 (FBN1) gene, which affects the body's connective tissue. This gene is located on chromosome 15.
