Mutations
How it occurs
-
It can also happen due to exposure to environmental factors, such as radiation. Aside from that, mutation can also be inherited.
Types
Chromosomal Mutation
Chromosomal mutation is a type of mutation where chromosomes are changed because of rearranged chromosome parts or changes in the number of chromosome set present in a genome
-
Point Mutation
Point mutation is a type of mutation in DNA or RNA. It occurs when 1 single nucleotide base is added, deleted, or changed.
What are Mutations?
Involves multiple processes in terms of applicable changes on the structure of particular DNA sequences. They are the cause of diversity.
-
It is known as a process of change because it infers to many different applications of seen differences from the sample's nature, form and quality
Effects
Mutations can cause changes in produced proteins. It can either give good or bad effects. Furthermore, mutations can also disrupt normal gene activity, which can result to diseases, such as cancer.
Due to the different structural changes mutation provides it is hard to pin point whether it is truly beneficial or harmful. Though in cases, it can provide changes such as added resistances to other specific diseases, this is due to DNA changes
Mutations can be bad if they produce unwanted or faulty proteins to the systems applied. These can lead into numerical genetic disorders depending on the capacity of the body.
