Mutation is the process by which the gene in the nucleotide suddenly changes its position

Any change in the structure of a gen or in the usual DNA sequence of a cell is called mutation. It can be caused by mistakes during cell division when the DNA is copied or by the exposure to DNA damaging agents in the environment like UV light or cigarette smoke, and may be transmitted to subsequent generations.

A mutation is a permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of an organism, virus or other genetic elements.

There are three types of mutations:

  • Base substitutions
  • Deletions
  • Insertions
