A mutation occurs in a nucleotide when there is a change in its structure, which can involve alterations in the nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine), the sugar (deoxyribose in DNA), or the phosphate group. Most commonly, mutations are associated with changes in the nitrogenous base, leading to substitutions, insertions, or deletions that can affect the genetic code. These changes can result from errors in DNA replication, environmental factors, or chemical exposure.
What else can I help you with?
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 would happen if a single nucleotide mistake were made in the replication process?
it cased that a another nucleotide replaces primary nucleotide and happens mutation.
What are known as gene mutations and occur at a single point in the DNA sequence?
Gene mutations that occur at a single point in the DNA sequence are called point mutations. These mutations can involve substitutions of one nucleotide for another (missense mutation), insertion of an extra nucleotide (insertion mutation), or deletion of a nucleotide (deletion mutation). Point mutations can have various effects on the resulting protein, ranging from no impact to severe functional changes.
A mutation that occurs at a specific location within a nucleotide sequence is called a?
Point mutation and it can be effective or silent depend upon at the site of codon
If one nucleotide is replaced by another it is called?
If one nucleotide is replaced by another, it is called a point mutation. This type of mutation involves a change in a single nucleotide within the DNA sequence.
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 would happen if a single nucleotide mistake were made in the replication process?
it cased that a another nucleotide replaces primary nucleotide and happens mutation.
A mutation that involves a single nucleotide is called a(an)?
Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
How does a mutation occur?
A mutation is a change in the DNA sequence that can arise spontaneously during cell division, due to errors in DNA replication or exposure to environmental factors like radiation or chemicals. Mutations can also be inherited from parents and can occur in different ways, such as single nucleotide changes, insertions, deletions, or rearrangements of DNA segments.
What are known as gene mutations and occur at a single point in the DNA sequence?
Gene mutations that occur at a single point in the DNA sequence are called point mutations. These mutations can involve substitutions of one nucleotide for another (missense mutation), insertion of an extra nucleotide (insertion mutation), or deletion of a nucleotide (deletion mutation). Point mutations can have various effects on the resulting protein, ranging from no impact to severe functional changes.
what type of mutation occurs when a nucleotide is left out?
deletion mutation
A mutation that occurs at a specific location within a nucleotide sequence is called a?
Point mutation and it can be effective or silent depend upon at the site of codon
If one nucleotide is replaced by another it is called?
If one nucleotide is replaced by another, it is called a point mutation. This type of mutation involves a change in a single nucleotide within the DNA sequence.
A change in a single nucleotide in DNA-?
A mutation
What is the change in a gene at a single nucleotide pair?
A mutation.
Can a point mutation cause a change in one single nucleotide in a DNA sequence?
Yes, a point mutation can cause a change in one single nucleotide in a DNA sequence.
Mutations that change one or just a few of nucleotides in a gene on a chromosome are called what?
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
