Mutations and Selections

Hello everyone,

Today we learned about mutations and selections for Science. We learned about what they meant and what they were.

There are three main types of mutations:

Substitution – A base is substituted/swapped for a different base.

Deletion – A base is deleted/removed.

Insertion – A base is added.

Mutations

Mutations, and alterations within DNA, lead to the creation of alleles. UV light, chemicals, dietary habits, and radiation exposure can induce mutations.

Thank you for reading my blog, I hope you have a fantastic day!
