Solar eclipses occur more often than lunar eclipses because in a lunar eclipse, the moon has to be perfectly aligned with both the earth and the sun.
Solar eclipses occur about 2 to 4 times per year, but the area
on the ground covered by totality is only about 50 miles wide. In any
given location on Earth, a total eclipse happens only once every hundred
years or so, though for selected locations they can occur as little as a
few years apart.
Eclipses of the Moon by the Earth's shadow occur less often than solar eclipses, however, each lunar eclipse is visible
from over half the Earth. At any given location, you can have up to
three lunar eclipses per year, but some years there may be none.
In any
one calendar year, the maximum number of eclipses is four solar and
three lunar.
A mutation is a change in a DNA sequence. Mutations can result from DNA copying mistakes made during cell division, exposure to ionizing radiation, exposure to chemicals called mutagens, or infection by viruses. Germ line mutations occur in the eggs and sperm and can be passed on to offspring, while somatic mutations occur in body cells and are not passed on.
Recessive mutations inactivate the affected gene and lead to a loss of function. For instance, recessive mutations may remove part of or all the gene from the chromosome, disrupt expression of the gene, or alter the structure of the encoded protein, thereby altering its function.
