Genetic changes caused by mutations can have the following outcome(s) on the phenotype of an individual_______________
Answer choices:
A) no effect on the fitness
B) increases fitness
C) all of the above
D) reduces fitness
Homework Answers
All of the above
Mutations are heritable changes in DNA which cause genetic variations and may or may not affect the phenotype of the organism.
Silent mutations arr those which change the sequence of DNA but do not affect the phenotype of the organism.
Some of the mutations are beneficial for the survival of the organism. These mutations are those which help the organism to survive better in its environment.
Some of the mutations called as the lethal or harmful mutations are those which are detrimental to the survival of the organism.
Please give a good rating.

Mutations arc changes in the DNA sequence of organisms and are the primary source of variation in populations. Brainstorm with your group mates some known mutations in the human population (some examples are provided): Of the mutations listed above, which ones do you predict to affect the "fitness" (ability to reproduce) of the individual? How (is it beneficial or detrimental)? Of the mutations listed above, which ones do you predict to affect the "fitness" (ability to reproduce) of the population?...

Nonsynonymous mutations in genes are nucleotide changes that alter the amino acid sequence of the translated protein, potentially leading to a change in protein function. Using your knowledge of the genetic code, which ONE of the following amino acid replacements can be caused by a single-base change? Select one: a. Val → Lys b. Asp → Thr c. Pro → Val d. Gly → Leu e. Cys → Phe

You are interested in mouse eye development and conduct a genetic screen for mutations that result in strong eye defects. After treating a male mouse with ENU (a chemical mutagen that induces base-pair changes and small deletions), you identify four mouse mutants 1-4, each with defective eyes. You cross each of the four mutant mice with eye defects to homozygous wild type mice and examine the progeny from each cross. What type of information can you get from observing the...

3) Proto-oncogenes can be converted to oncogenes by various genetic changes. Which of these mechanisms is not likely to contribute to conversion to an oncogene? Select one: A: Extra copies of the gene are made, thereby enhancing expression. B: A mutation occurs upstream of the gene that results in a more active promoter. C: Chromosomes break and fragments are translocated from one chromosome to another. D: Point mutations occur that result in a protein more resistant to degradation. E: All...
