Summary Introduction

To discuss:

The major two ways by which mutation occurs.

Introduction:

Mutation refers to any alteration or change in the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) sequence of an organism. Mutations are mainly caused due to errors that occur in DNA replication. Insertion and deletion of DNA segments may also result in mutations. Mutations are generally harmful, though some can be beneficial as well.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
You decide to delete Fgf4 and Fgf8 specifically in the limb bud. Explain why you would not knock out these genes in the entire embryo instead.
You implant an FGF10-coated bead into the anterior flank of a chicken embryo, directly below the level of the wing bud. What is the phenotype of the resulting ectopic limb?  Briefly describe the expected expression domains of 1) Shh, 2) Tbx4, and 3) Tbx5 in the resulting ectopic limb bud.
Design a grafting experiment to determine if limb mesoderm determines forelimb / hindlimb identity. Include the experiment, a control, and an interpretation in your answer.
