Chapter 26.5, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To explain: The reason why numerous base changes in a genome have no effect on the organism’s fitness.
Concept introduction:
Mutations are heritable changes in the genome. It causes diversity in genes. Mutation may be due to chromosomal rearrangement or base changes in DNA such as

- Q1: If all genes are composed of just four nucleotides, how can different genes carry different types of information? Q2: Would you expect to see more variation in the sequence of DNA bases between two members of the same species (such as humans) or between two individuals of different species (for example, humans and chickens)? Explain your reasoning. Q3: Do different alleles of a gene have the same DNA sequence or different DNA sequences?arrow_forwardS Warm up Wednesd.. omal Mutations ANALYZE Many people with balanced translocation mutations are not aware they have them until they try to have children. How is this possible? Select all correct answers. A. The person still has a full set of genes. B. There is no change in people's DNA until after they have children. C. Children inherit one chromosome from each parent, so they may not receive a full set of genes. O D. Cells easily repair these types of mutations, so they should not cause health issues unless repair mechanisms are not functioning properly. Checkarrow_forwardHelparrow_forward
