Mutation. Permanent change in the genetic material of an organism. All mutations in gametes are inheritable because they are copied during DNA replication. Somatic cell mutations occur in body cells.

CP Biology. Genetic Disorders. Major types of genetic disorders:. Autosomal. Single genes. Multiple genes. Sex-linked. Chromosome abnormalities. Autosomal Disorders. Autosomal genetic disorders . are caused by alleles on autosomes (chromosomes other than the sex chromosomes). Point mutations. single base change . silent mutation. no amino acid change. redundancy in code. missense. change amino acid. Changes the final protien. nonsense. change to stop codon. Stopping prematurely . 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). The sequence of bases in DNA are like the letters of a coded message or even the letters of a simple alphabet. . If we change the sequence of the letters do we change the nature of the message?. That . Understand how they occur. Analyze the different types of mutations. Understand how mutations affect amino acid sequences and proteins. Objective. Central Dogma. DNA is transcribed into RNA, RNA is translated into proteins. Mohanad. Mahdi Al-. Hindawi. . Introduction . A . gene. (from ancient Greek: . gonos. : . offspring. , procreation) is a locus (or region) of DNA which is made up of nucleotides.. The transmission of genes to an organism's offspring is the basis of the inheritance of phenotypic traits. . Science. Learning intention. To understand the different types of mutations. . You will need. A pen and a piece of paper or a laptop to record your answers. . You may need the internet to search for answers. . 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.
