How do mutations effect individual traits?

Biology
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]3 years ago
6 0
Mutations can affect the coding of "base pairs" in the chromosome of an individual by various means like:
1) by Deletion
2) by Duplication
3) by Translocation
4) by Inversion

After all that changes, codes deviates from normal information & can affect individual in negative way. In that manner, Mutations affect individual traits.

Hope this helps!

Which guinea pig parent(s) in Punnett Square B is homozygous? Which is heterozygous? Explain how you know.
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
You did not provide an image for me, but I can explain.

Homozygous, with the root homo, means same. Therefore, a guinea pig parent with homozygous traits would have the traits being the same - either both recessive or both dominant, ie TT, tt.

Heterozygous on the other hand means different, therefore the traits would be one dominant and one recessive - for example, Tt.

If for the punnet square it has different traits (Combo RB for red and black or combo RW red white for like fur color) than heterozygous would be any that isn’t like TT or tt or any other letters used.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

B. Mutation; C. Random genetic drift; D. Migration; F. Natural selection

Explanation:

B. Mutation:  Mutations resulting from substitution, addition or deletions of a nucleotide in a sequence can alter the gene. This can be carried over a population and may be have deleterious effects or increase fitness in a gene.

C. Random genetic drift: It is a change in allele frequency that occurs by chance, usually in a small population and is carried over generations.

D. Migration: Involves the flow of a gene in or out of a population, and this modifies the allele frequency.

F. Natural selection: When fitness-promoting alleles are favored and carried over to the next generation.
