Answer:

By the same token, any random change in a gene's DNA is likely to result in a protein that does not function normally or may not function at all. Such mutations are likely to be harmful. Harmful mutations may cause genetic disorders or cancer. A genetic disorder is a disease caused by a mutation in one or a few genes.

Mutations can lead to missing or malformed proteins, and that can lead to disease. ... Some mutations happen during cell division, when DNA gets duplicated. Still other mutations are caused when DNA gets damaged by environmental factors, including UV radiation, chemicals, and viruses. Few mutations are bad for you.

A set of identical twins are together in an introductory biology class. The unit of study is DNA and its structure. The teacher

Hunter-Best [27]

In identical twins, alleles are identical and the order of the bases on the interior of the DNA molecule is identical (Options C and E). It is because genetic material is identical.

<h3>What are identical twins?</h3>

Identical twins refer to individuals produced by the same zygote cell, i.e., they are monozygotic twins.

Since these individuals are produced by the same zygote cell, their genetic material (DNA) will be identical.

Identical twins are useful to understand the exact role of genetics and environment in a given phenotypic trait.
