Henry County Professional Learning High School Session II Chromosomal Mutations Deletion part of the chromosome is missing Starts with breaks in the chromosome Radiation heat viruses chemicals etc. Types . of Mutations | . Effects . of . Mutations. Learning Objectives. Identify different changes to DNA within both genes and chromosomes. Evaluate effects of changes to DNA on proteins produced and organisms’ overall survival. Mutations. Hollywood’s images of . mutation. Mutations. Actual Mutations . in fruit flies. What is a mutation?. A mutation is any change in a cell’s DNA. A mutation can occur in an individual gene. Mutations are changes in the genetic material. . Mutations may be genetic mutations or chromosomal mutations.. Genetic Mutations occur in the “code” on DNA or mRNA. Mistakes in . copying the DNA :. and Causes. What kinds of mutations can occur?. Mutations:. Mutations: are changes in the genetic material.. Mutations can produce changes in a single nucleotide to a whole chromosome. . Gene Mutations:. Karyotype. Human Chromosomes. Humans have . 46 . chromosomes arranged in . 23. pairs. Two . sex chromosomes. - determine an individual’s sex. Females . have two copies of the large X chromosome. Males have one X and a smaller Y chromosome. Changes in the genetic material. Mutations can occur in two different types of Cells:. 1. Somatic (body) cells. 2. Gamete (sex or germ) cells. Mutations in somatic cells. Usually result in killing that body cell only.. M. istakes made in the DNA sequencing. They can have a range of effects.. They can affect the genetic information that is passed to offspring.. Cells have evolved various methods to deal with them. . Given a mutation, identify its type. Predict how a mutation will affect a protein.. Mutations. Changes in genetic material (DNA). 2 main types of mutations. Point mutation- change in one or a few nucleotides (letters). 12.1 Chromosomal Inheritance . 1. Genes are located on chromosomes; this is called the . chromosome theory of inheritance. .. 12.1 Chromosomal Inheritance. Chromosomes can be categorized as two types:. What if it’s NOT just the number?. Gene Mutations. Damaged Chromosomes . –. sometimes a portion of a gene or chromosome is lost or damaged during meiosis. Gene mutation. – a mutation that affects the gene. Typically occur during meiosis (gamete formation) but can also occur during mitosis. Can lead to cancer some cases. We will look at: Translocation, Deletion, Duplication and Inversion. Few harmful gene mutations are passed on to the next generation because the zygote usually dies. If it lives, the offspring may have birth defects.. There are two basic types of mutations:. Gene mutations - mutations that produce changes in a single gene. Chromosomal mutations - mutations that produce changes in whole chromosomes. Gene mutations . mutation. Mutations. Actual Mutations . in fruit flies. What is a mutation?. A mutation is any change in a cell’s DNA. A mutation can occur in an individual gene. - results in a single changed protein. mutation. Mutations. Ectrodactyly. Progeria. Hypertrichosis. Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disorder (SCID). Sickle Cell Anemia. Heterochromia. iridium. What is a mutation?. @A . mutation is any change in a cell’s .
