What's the most common type of mutation observed in living populations, and what impact does it have on natural selection?

1 answer:

5 0

The most common type of observed mutation is a neutral mutation. This mutation doesn't impact natural selection in any noticeable way since it doesn't impact the fit of that organism. Since neutral mutations convey no advantage, they generally must spread in a population through drift. Many also will disappear through drift.
