Source #1: Gene Shuffling Meiosis followed by sexual reproduction Most genetic variations are due to gene shuffling In humans this produces 8.4 million different combinations of genes Does not change the relative frequency of alleles in a population Source #1: Gene Shuffling
Crossing over during meiosis produces variation in genes. Gene shuffling Crossing over during meiosis produces variation in genes.
Gene shuffling Independent assortment allows alleles for one trait to segregate independently from alleles for another trait.
Gene shuffling Independent assortment and crossing over produces variation in gametes, which produces variation in the family.

mutations Change (mistake) in DNA code Source #3: Mutations
mutations A mutation is a change/mistake in the DNA
mutations 2 Types: 1. Gene Mutation 2. Chromosome Mutation
Gene Mutation: small change
Example: Point Mutation mutations Example: Point Mutation Base is substituted Will/won’t change protein Organism is affected if the protein changes
Point mutations change one (or a few) _____ . genes genes Point mutations change one (or a few) _____ .
Chromosomal Mutation: big change mutations Chromosomal Mutation: big change
Example: Frame-Shift Mutation mutations Example: Frame-Shift Mutation Nucleotide deleted/added Shift Changes protein and affects organism
mutations chromosomes Chromosomal mutations change the number or structure of ______________ .
mutations 4 Types: Deletion Duplication Inversion Translocation
Mutations can cause changes in the DNA.
Sometimes mutations can cause damage to cells that control growth.
Cells can lose control and _____ can spread to the whole body . mutations Cells can lose control and _____ can spread to the whole body . cancer cancer
