What else can I help you with?
The original source of genetic variation that serves as the raw material for natural selection is what?
Generally, mutation.
What are two types of mutation?
From another angle: beneficial and detrimental.
A change in the nucleotide base sequence of gene or DNA molecule is called a what?
this is called a mutation
Difference between body cell mutation and sex cell mutation?
A mutation in a sex cell may be passed on to an offspring. A mutation in a somatic (body) cell cannot be passed on to an offspring, but can potentially cause cancer in the person who has the mutation.
How a mutation may not affect an organisms traits?
A mutation does not affect an organism trait for a reason. It is neutral which depends on the environment.

Mutation is any change in a gene or chromosome?
mutations
What seems to determine the magnitude of a mutation's effect?
The location of the mutation within the genome, the type of mutation (e.g., missense, frameshift), and its effect on gene function or protein structure typically determine the magnitude of a mutation's effect. Additionally, the degree to which the mutation disrupts important cellular processes or regulatory mechanisms can also influence its impact.
A change in a gene is called?
A mutation
What is random errors when DNA is copied called?
It's called a mutation.
A change in a single nucleotide in DNA-?
A mutation
Why are somatic mutations generally less important than germ mutations?
Because the somatic mutation only produces the color of the iris of the eye. The germ mutation is in charge of the cell which will produce a gamete. It may be passed onto the offspring. So the somatic mutation isn't as important as the germ mutation.
A mutation that involves one or a few nucleotides is called a?
Sorry to burst the persons bubble that said frameshift mutation but its wrong. Point mutation-gene mutation involving changes in one or a few nucleotides. point mutation

Missence mutation
