deciding what you will look like. It would change the cell’s function and could change what you look like. (for example: you might get a new freckle.) Mutations!
any change in the nucleotide (base-pair) order in DNA AGTAT Protein Synthesis DNA Replication AGTTT Cell Division It will change what you look like cancer, birth mark or mole, hair loss, freckles, grey hair, two different colored eyes
Information about a trait you have (like hair color, eye color, etc.) on DNA Chromosomal – A change in the whole chromosome/DNA (it affects many genes) Gene– A change in a very small piece of a chromosome/DNA (it affects only one gene)
Chromosomal A piece of the DNA is broken off and lost
Chromosomal A piece of DNA is copied and repeated
Chromosomal Involves two chromosomes – one piece breaks off & switches chromosomes
Chromosomal A piece of a chromosome breaks off and reverses order
Gene One nucleotide (base) is substituted for another
Chromosomal An addition or deletion of one base that causes the rest to shift over
