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.
Which types of mutation can add genes to a chromosomes?
insertion and deletion
What happens to a chromosome during an inverse mutation?
During an inverse mutation, a segment of the chromosome gets reversed, leading to a change in the order of genes in that region. This alteration can disrupt gene function, potentially affecting the organism's phenotype. Reverse mutations can cause genetic disorders or have no noticeable effect depending on the specific genes involved and the scale of the inversion.
A mutation that results in the death of the organism is a?
lethal mutation
Is adding repeats of DNA at the ends of chromosome a kind of mutation?
technicly yes, and it may affect the action of the telemorase, but don't forget, even if a mutation doesnt do anything, that doesnt mean it isn't a mutation. most mutations are silent (have no effect).

Suicide genes can be controlled by the fimbriae gene operator this would result in the death of a all cells b cells making flagella c cells making fimbriae d cells at 37 degrees c e conjugating cells?
d) cells making fimbriae. Suicide genes controlled by the fimbriae gene operator would result in the death of cells producing fimbriae when activated. This mechanism allows for the selective elimination of specific bacterial populations within a culture.
Is the source of brand new genes in a population called mutation?
Yes, brand new genes can only come from mutation.
How does different genes happen?
New genes appear in individuals by random mutation.
Which types of mutation affects more genes a gene mutation or a chromosomal?
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
How does genetic mutation effect the process of evolution?
If a particular mutation occurs in nature and proves to be beneficial, it can change the entire species to begin to have the same mutation and thus the same good trait. A creature with a mutation that say, gives it a longer tail (and chicks dig a long tail) than he will mate and that mutation will allow his genes to pass on.
Why are the white tigers white?
It is a mutation of genetic genes.
What is the likelihood that two individual heterozygous for a mutation will have a child who expresses that genetic defects?
there is a 1/4 chance that the offspring will have two dominant genes for that effect, a 2/4 chance that they will be heterozygous like their parents and a 1/4 chance that they will have two recessive genes. If this mutation is the recessive, then the likelihood of the offspring expressing will be 1/4
What is the most common mutation to genes?
p53 gene..approximately 50% of human cancers involve this mutation.
Is mutation the same as successful reproduction?
A mutation is basically a change in genes. They may be good or bad. A good mutation is also known as an adaptation.
Which types of mutation can add genes to a chromosomes?
insertion and deletion
Which molecular events result in an irreversible change in genes?
Mutation
