  • changes to a DNA sequence
    Mutation
  • agents that cause alteration in the DNA and can lead to permanent mutations in the DNA sequence depending on the ability of an organism to repair the damage.
    Mutagens
  • e type mutation in DNA or RNA wherein one single nucleotide base is deleted, added or altered.
    Point Mutation
  • This can lead to substitution mutation.
    Point Mutation

  • Includes the deletion, insertion, or substitution of ONE nucleotide in a gene
    Point Mutation
  • changes the number of DNA bases by removing a piece of DNA
    Deletion
  • changes the number of DNA bases in a gene by adding a piece of DNA
    Insertion
