What type mutation are most harmful to an organism

Biology
1 answer:
Ghella [55]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

type 1

Explanation:

Because an insertion or deletion results in a frame-shift that changes the reading of subsequent codons and, therefore, alters the entire amino acid sequence that follows the mutation, insertions and deletions are usually more harmful than a substitution in which only a single amino acid is altered.

Which refers to the movement of a piece of one chromosome to another nonhomologous chromosome?
Stels [109]

Answer:

Translocation

Explanation:

Translocation is a chromosomal abnormality (mutation) in which a chromosome breaks and a portion of it reattaches to a different chromosomal location. It can occur during the formation of sperms and eggs during meiosis.

Translocation is of two main types: 1. Reciprocal location, in which two fragments break off from two different (non-homologous) chromosomes and switch places.

2. Robertsonian translocation, in which an entire chromosome (usually acrocentric) becomes attached to another chromosome (acrocentric) at the centromere to form a metacentric chromosome.

Translocation can either be BALANCED, where no genetic information is missing or additional. Hence, there is an even exchange with no adverse effect on the affected individual or UNBALANCED, where the exchange of chromosomal material is unequal resulting in an extra or missing genes.
