Mutations Mutation – random error or change in a DNA sequence that may affect the whole chromosome or just one gene What can cause a mutation? Copying errors by the polymerase, UV radiation, chemicals, virusesWhat can cause a mutation? Copying errors by the polymerase, UV radiation, chemicals, viruses Are mutations always bad? NO. Beneficial mutations can lead to evolutionary change.Are mutations always bad? NO. Beneficial mutations can lead to evolutionary change.
10
Point Mutation – a change to a single base pair in DNA –This kind of error usually changes only one amino acid EXAMPLE: –THE CAT ATE THE RAT –THE CAT ATE THE MAT
11
Mutations Frameshift Mutation – a mutation in which a single base is added or deleted from the DNA sequence This would cause every codon to be different after that addition / deletion
12
Mutations What are chromosomal mutations? What are chromosomal mutations? –Mutations affecting gene distribution to gametes during meiosis
13
Most common mutations: (see page 239) Deletions – part of chromosome is lost Insertions – part of the chromosome breaks off and rejoins it’s sister chromatid
14
Most common mutations: (see page 239) Inversions – when a part of the chromosome breaks out and is reinserted backwards Translocations – –when a part of the chromosome breaks off and joins a different chromosome
15
Question of the Day 4-28 1. Which mutation is more likely to cause a problem a point mutation or a frameshift mutation? WHY?

Question of the Day 5-2 1. The type of mutation when a piece of the chromosome breaks off and is reinserted backwards =
