GENE MUTATION‚TYPES OF MUTATIONS 1. Gene Mutation A Gene Mutation is defined as an alternation in the sequence of nucleotides in DNA. It can affect a single nucleotide pair or larger gene segments of a chromosome. Mutations cause changes in the genetic code which lead to genetic variation and the potential to develop disease. What causes Gene Mutation? → Gene mutations are most commonly caused as a result of two types of occurrences. 1. Environmental factors Ex) chemicals‚ radiation
Premium DNA Mutation Gene
In biology‚ term- mutation has been described as changes to the base pair sequence of the genetic material of an organism. Mutations can be caused by: copying errors in the genetic material during cell division‚ by exposure to ultraviolet or ionizing radiation‚ chemical mutagens‚ or viruses‚ or can occur deliberately under cellular control during processes such as hypermutation. In multicellular organisms‚ mutations can be subdivided into germ line mutations‚ which can be passed on to descendants

* Page#7: Conclusion * Page#8: Bibliography Where is your money going? Did you know over a million dollars go to waste from buying a ton of batteries that barely work. For my science fair project I am going to test the 4 most popular brands of batteries in America‚ Duracell‚ Energizer‚ Rayovac‚ and a Alkaline battery named Enercell. The problem is that big battery brands run out quick and you feel like a fool‚ because you fell for their false advertising. So to accomplish this I am going

Step 1. Gather Ideas Observe surroundings and notice the things that need improving. Next‚ add some creativity and logic to think of possible solutions. Then consult knowledgeable people if the idea is doable. For example‚ instead of complaining about the pollution in the city‚ think of creative‚ effective ways on how it can be reduced. Or use a junked bicycle to design a washing machine (this project won First Prize in Improvisation during a Regional Science Fair). Step 2. Research Gather as

01/08/14 A Mutation Story Have you ever wondered about the genetic mutation that affected the population of West Africa? Well‚ I always had that thought in my mind! So I thought why not write about it. So I did! The article that I chose was “A Mutation Story” from http://sepuplhs.org/. This section tells the story of a genetic mutation affecting the population of West Africa. Even though this mutation is helpful in avoiding malaria‚ this mutation can also lead to sickle cell anemia

one of the researchers did experience such a thing. This was when the group got the idea of making an investigation on such a matter. The researchers‚ being very curious themselves‚ tried to fill their curiosity. Trying to find out if flowers can be used as an ingredient to create an island juice and wondering if it would turn out to be great tasting at the same time forced them to execute an investigatory project. After a lot of inquiries and brainstorming‚ the researchers finally found out how to

ions -DNA replication minimizes errors such as the DNA that is duplicated but changes in the DNA do occur‚ producing mutations. Although most mutations are either neutral or harmful they are also the raw material for evolution. Such mutations from alleles‚ alternate forms of a given gene that may produce differences in structure or function such as black‚ brown or blond hair in humans‚ or different mating calls in frogs. Stages of Mitosis~ 1)Parent cell. 2)Chromosomes make identical copies
