How might alterations in dna structure be harmful to an organism?

Biology
1 answer:
Thepotemich [5.8K]3 years ago
5 0
Changes in the dna are called mutations. They can occur spontaneously. Mutations can only be passed down in gametes--sperm and egg cells. with Darwins theory at mind a mutation needs to pass the test of natural selection to remain in the gene pool. So purposly making mutation or altercations may end in diseases/illnesses or in some cases death because they body can not take it.....hope this helps if it doesnt im sorry!

What part of the scientific method do you decide if your hypothesis was right?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

OBSERVATION is first step, so that you know how you want to go about your research. HYPOTHESIS is the answer you think you'll find. PREDICTION is your specific belief about the scientific idea: If my hypothesis is true, then I predict we will discover this. CONCLUSION is the answer that the experiment gives.

The scientific method is an empirical method of acquiring knowledge that has characterized the development of science since at least the 17th century (with notable practitioners in previous centuries). It involves careful observation, applying rigorous skepticism about what is observed, given that cognitive assumptions can distort how one interprets the observation. It involves formulating hypotheses, via induction, based on such observations; experimental and measurement-based testing of deductions drawn from the hypotheses; and refinement (or elimination) of the hypotheses based on the experimental findings. These are principles of the scientific method, as distinguished from a definitive series of steps applicable to all scientific enterprises.

1 Make an observation.

2 Ask a question.

3 Propose a hypothesis.

4 Make predictions.

5 Test the predictions.

6 Iterate.

Animals of the same general body types have the same anatomy true or false​
horsena [70]

Animals of the same general body types having the same anatomy is True.

Anatomy is the study of the body parts, structures and functions of

organisms.

In situations where animals have the same general body type , then it means

they also have the same anatomy. A good example is mammals which have

the same structure of  body parts and the same anatomy.

Organisms with different body structures however have an entirely different

anatomy which is why True is the most appropriate choice.
