Mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called?
Point Mutation is the mutation that involves a single or few nucleotide. This type of mutation replaces a single nucleotide to another.
What mutation cause changes in the number of chromosome?
Aneuploidy mutation causes a change in the number of chromosomes. Aneuploidy occurs during cell division when the chromosomes do not separate properly resulting in a change in the number of chromosomes.
What mutation causes either the inclusion of an extra chromosomes in offspring or the deletion of an entire chromosomes?
non-disjunction
Which types of mutation can add genes to a chromosomes?
insertion and deletion
What is a carrier for hemophilia?
A carrier for hemophilia is a female who carries the genetic mutation for hemophilia on one of her X chromosomes, but does not exhibit symptoms of the condition herself. Carriers can pass on the gene mutation to their children, resulting in hemophilia in male offspring. Testing can confirm carrier status.
What is reciprocal mutation?
when there is a two way exchange of genetic portion between two non-homologus chromosomes, its called reciprocal mutation, its a type of translocation mutation
Why are male mutation rates higher than female?
This is because mutations occur in x chromosomes. The male, who has "xy" sex chromosomes, will have the mutation if it is present in the x chromosome. Females, there is a smaller chance because there are two "xx" chromosomes, which reduces the chance that the mutation will be present.
What is the difference between crossover and mutation in genetic algorithm?
mutation means change in genetic structure..where as crossover means interchanging the genetic structure of two or more chromosomes..

Point Mutation is the mutation that involves a single or few nucleotide. This type of mutation replaces a single nucleotide to another.
What do you call a change in a gene or chromosomes?
mutation
What is the definition of polyploidy mutation?
Polyploidy mutation is a type of mutation that results in an organism having more than two complete sets of chromosomes. This can lead to increased genetic diversity and potentially new traits in the organism.
What mutation cause changes in the number of chromosome?
Aneuploidy mutation causes a change in the number of chromosomes. Aneuploidy occurs during cell division when the chromosomes do not separate properly resulting in a change in the number of chromosomes.
A mutation that involves a single nucletiode is called an?
