Mutation is any change to DNA in a cell.
|
||||
If a mutation occurs in a germ cell, it well get passed on to the next generation.
|
||||
Mutations aren't necessarily a detriment, it can also be beneficial or have no effect (silent mutations).
|
||||
|
||||
Four main types of chromosome changes are:
|
||||
- Deletion, where a segment is deleted from the chromosome.
|
||||
- Translocation, which is crossover between non homologous chromosomes
|
||||
- Inversion, where a section is inverted 180 degrees.
|
||||
- Duplication, where a section is repeated.
