What is an example of a good effect from a mutation?
Well a Silent Mutation does not affect anything so it isn't bad so its a good mutation.
What is the result of mutation during of meiosis?
The mutation may be passed on to an offspring. Depending on the mutation, it may have no effect, or it could be lethal.
Explain how a mutation could have no effect on the organism?
It can have absolutely no affect, a bad affect, or even a good affect.*Deletion and Addition are frameshift: most harmful.
What could be a good effective a mutation?
More varity in a population
What is a mutation called that has no effect on an organism?
A point mutation, in which one nitrogen base in a codon is substituted for another, may have no effect on an organism. This is true if the base substitution does not change the amino acid that the codon represents, or if the mutation occurs in a non-critical location in the protein so that the protein's structure is not changed significantly and the protein is still able to function.
Is a mutation deleterious?
A deleterious mutation has a negative effect on the phenotype, and thus decreases the fitness of the organism. (A harmful mutation)
What is potential impact mutation?
No one knows what effect a mutation may have. Most are not viable.
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.
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.
How is it possible for a point mutation to have no effect on the function of gene?
If the point mutation does not change the protein to be translated in the 3-letter sequence, then it will have no effect on the gene's function.
What is the main question to ask when considering the effect of a mutation?
The main question to consider when evaluating the effect of a mutation is how it alters the organism's phenotype or function. This involves assessing whether the mutation impacts protein structure or function, gene regulation, or any other biological processes that could affect the organism.
Why are some mutation not harmful?
Some mutations can be deadly, harmful, or have no effect. Correct, not all mutations are harmful. Some mutations could even have a positive effect and help the creature adapt.
