Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Mutations are any permanent changes or alterations in the genetic material. There are different types of mutations, which may lead to changes in the chromosome such as duplication, deletion, inversion, and translocation. Some of these mutations alter the amount of genetic material and may result in

Plekhg5 functions in bottle cell formation, and Shroom3 functions in neural plate closure, yet the phenotype of injecting mRNA of each into the animal pole of a fertilized egg is very similar. What is the phenotype, and why is the phenotype so similar?
Is the phenotype going to be that there is a disruption of the formation of the neural tube for both of these because bottle cell formation is necessary for the neural plate to fold in forming the neural tube and Shroom3 is further needed to close the neural plate? So since both Plekhg5 and Shroom3 are used in forming the neural tube, injecting the mRNA will just lead to neural tube deformity?
What are some medical issues or health trends that may have a direct link to the idea of keeping fat out of diets?
