Your number in decimal form is
3,000,000
.
To get to standard scientific notation, we move the decimal point so there is only one non-zero digit in front of the decimal point.
So,
3,000,000
becomes
3.000,000
.
The trailing zeroes are not significant, so
3.000,000
becomes
3
.
We moved the decimal point six places, so the exponent is
6
.
We moved the decimal point to the left, so the exponent is positive.
The exponential part is therefore
10
6
.
3,000,000=3 X10^6
Answer:
A mutation is a heritable change in the genetic material of an individual. The change can be large or small. Large changes involve the loss, addition, duplication, or rearrangement of whole chromosomes or chromosome segments. Mutations can affect an organism by changing its physical characteristics (or phenotype) or it can impact the way DNA codes the genetic information (genotype). When mutations occur they can cause termination (death) of an organism or they can be partially lethal.
