Term
| What is the purpose of DNA Replication? |
|
Definition
Semi-conservative
Uses Original strand as a template
New strand of DNA = 1 Old Strand and 1 new strand |

| What is Frame-shift Mutation? |
|
Definition
Altered reading frame
Severe impacts on a protein structure, will see a phenototypic change, or potentially deadly. |

|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Chrosomal - Too few or too many chromosomes that is meant for that organism.
Or altered or damaged structure to any of the chromosomes in the organism.
Gene - Mutations that take place in the DNA sequence that result in a altered gene. |

Term
| What is the effect of Non-Sense mutation? |
|
Definition
Phenotypic change only occur when the amino acid (protein) is changed or altered
If theres a mutation and the changed nucleotide still codes for the same amino acid = no phentoypic change will occur. |

Term
| What is effect of Silent mutation? |
|
Definition
| Codes for a functional protein = No phenotypic change |
|
|
Term
| What is the effect of Missense mutation? |
|
Definition
| Codes for the wrong amino acid = phenotypic change |
