Answer:

When strand slippage occurs during DNA replication, a DNA strand may loop out, resulting in the addition or deletion of a nucleotide on the newly-synthesized strand. ... But if this does not occur, a nucleotide that is added to the newly synthesized strand can become a permanent mutation.

Answer:

A mutation is a change that occurs in our DNA sequence, either due to mistakes when the DNA is copied or as the result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smoke. Mutations can occur during DNA replication if errors are made and not corrected in time.

Answer:

Explanation:

Enzyme are protein molecules that catalyzes chemical reaction.

In DNA replication, enzymes play a major role.

Enzymes identify the starting point of replication, attach itself and then unwind the Deoxyribonucleotide acid DNA Strand to form the replication fork.

Enzyme Helicase unwind and breaks the hydrogen bond between the base pair, opening up the helix structure to form a template for the new strand.

DNA polymerase also play a major role, it synthesis new DNA by adding primer to the DNA sequence for replication to occur, they also proof read the copy of DNA Strand being made to avoid errors during replication and add nucleotide to the growing DNA strand.
