Question

ACE OR EXPERT HELP PLS: Words are very similar to genes in that they use bases instead of letters to create genetic expression. If a mutation in letters makes a new word meaning, what would a mutation in bases create?

Answer 1

Answer:

A mutation could create a difference in the sequence of the codons which could potentially create a different outcome in amino acids. Letters create words and bases create codes for amino acids. If a letter changes in a word than the meaning of the word may change, correspondingly if a base changes ( or a mutation occurs ) in a nucleotide the outcome of the amino acid may change.
