Technically anything that effects a person in either adult or a foetus (or even an embryo) is a disease or condition (even the creation of Siamese twins). Mutations are changes in the DNA-they may cause diseases or conditions of course.
Although the cause of barbules to form on feather barbs doesn't sound like a difficult change in evolution, it would likely take more than just a single mutation for such an evolutionary change to occur. Most likely, it would take many mutations.
A mutant can be mutated just as any other life form.
This is called an insertion mutation.Some repeats, such as the repeats in the Huntington's gene, can be repeated too many times and then you have the deleterious mutation in this gene.
An insertion mutation adds one or more nucleotides into the DNA sequence, which can disrupt the reading frame of the gene. This frameshift can lead to the production of a completely different and often nonfunctional protein, resulting in significant defects. In contrast, a point mutation typically alters just a single nucleotide, which may only change one amino acid or have no effect at all, making it generally less disruptive than an insertion mutation. Thus, the broader impact of an insertion mutation often leads to more severe consequences in gene function.
A mutation is like a typographical error in a printed book, where a small change in the text can lead to a different meaning or outcome. Just as a typo can alter the intended message of a sentence, a mutation in DNA can result in changes to an organism's traits or characteristics.
A mutation in a sex cell means that the mutation can be passed on to the individuals offspring. If the mutation just occurred in a somatic cell, it would not be passed down.
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
ITs not just for adults, Its for everyone! :]
Just adults
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
Just young adults. Which type of "young adults" are you referring to?

the correct answer is C. a substitution i know this cause i have this book to this question and point mutation is not one of the answer and i found the answer in the book -No its substituton you jack wagon your books wrong
Because they are just grown-up bullies.
i don't know and i just ask you
Punctuated equilibrium
Kids because they just learned everything and adults cant remember.
