What else can I help you with?
Explain how a mutation could have no effect on the organism?
It can have absolutely no affect, a bad affect, or even a good affect.*Deletion and Addition are frameshift: most harmful.
How can mutation in a gene affect the traits that an organism has?
The gene will code for a different protein than it should.
In what ways can DNA mutation affect the traits of an organism?
The gene will code for a different protein than it should.
When a nitrogenous base is inserted or delete how does that affect the amino acid sequence?
The amino acid sequence is shifted, and this kind of mutation is called a frame shift mutation. All of the amino acid sequence after the mutation will be changed, which will cause a change in shape of the protein, which will then probably result in a nonfunctional protein, since the shape of a protein determines its function.
Most genetic disorders results from a mutation that changes the amino acid sequence in a?
Most genetic disorders result from a mutation that changes the amino acid sequence in a protein. This change can lead to altered protein function, which can affect normal cellular processes and result in disease.
Why is a silent mutation called silent?
a mutation that does not affect protein production.
Does a DNA mutation always result in a change to the protein?
No, a DNA mutation does not always result in a change to the protein. Some mutations are silent and do not affect the protein's function.
Why does an insertion mutation usually cause defects during protein synthesis than a point mutation?
Insertion mutations can affect many amino acids in the protein.An insertion mutation usually causes more defects during protein synthesis than point mutation because an insertion mutation will affect many amino acids in the protein.
How does a mutation that alters a codon for a specific amino acid to a different codon for the same amino acid affect protein synthesis?
When a mutation changes a codon for a specific amino acid to a different codon for the same amino acid, it usually does not affect protein synthesis. This is because multiple codons can code for the same amino acid, so the change may not alter the final protein product.
Why does an insertion mutation usually cause more defects in protein synthesis than a point mutation?
Insertion mutations can affect many amino acids in the protein.An insertion mutation usually causes more defects during protein synthesis than point mutation because an insertion mutation will affect many amino acids in the protein.
How can a single mutation in a protein such as hemoglobin affect several body system?

What cell mutation does not impact the phenotype of the organism because the protein remains unchanged?
It is possible for a point mutation to not change the sequence of amino acids in a protein. This will result in the protein being unchanged and will not affect the phenotype.
How can a point mutation affect the protein created by the gene?
A point mutation can affect the protein created by a gene by changing a single nucleotide in the gene's DNA sequence. This change can alter the amino acid sequence of the protein, potentially leading to a different protein being produced. This can impact the protein's structure and function, which may result in a variety of effects on the organism.
Why does an insert mutation usually cause more defects during protein synthesis than a point mutation?
Insertion mutations can affect many amino acids in the protein.An insertion mutation usually causes more defects during protein synthesis than point mutation because an insertion mutation will affect many amino acids in the protein.
Explain how a mutation could have no effect on the organism?
It can have absolutely no affect, a bad affect, or even a good affect.*Deletion and Addition are frameshift: most harmful.
What is a non polar mutation?
a mutation in a gene that does not affect the downstream genes in an operon. ie. a polar mutation is one that DOES affect the transcription or translation of genes in the same operon downstream of your gene of interest.
How can mutation in a gene affect the traits that an organism has?
The gene will code for a different protein than it should.
