Answer: A mutation is a change that occurs in sequence of the DNA.

Explanation:

Mutation is capable of manipulating the genetic information carried by the genes. A mutagen is any agent which brings about changes in the genetic make up of an organism. Those mutations which occur at the somatic cells are called somatic mutations but those that occur at the germline cells are called as genetic mutations. The genetic mutations are heritable that means they are passed on from parents to their progenies.    

The genetic mutations are important as they bring about evolution of new traits in the generation of a particular species or in the generation of a particular individual. For example, genetic disorders and diseases caused by the genetic mutations are passed on to the next generation like cystic fibrosis, phenylketonuria, color blindness, and others. Thus identification of a particular genetic mutation is important to determine the cause of genetic diseases and disorders.

vivado [14]

Answer:

<h2> Each daughter molecule contains one parent strand and one newly synthesized strand</h2>

Explanation:

In DNA replication, each daughter molecule contains one parent strand and one newly synthesized strand because DNA replication is semi-conservative. One template strand is parental strand and the other one is its complementary which is new one, which is synthesized by DNA polymerase enzyme. So both  daughter molecule contains one parent strand and one newly synthesized strand and they are same in the sequence of bases because each strand contains one original parental strand.

Viruses evolve rapidly in part because of the error-prone nature of their replication enzymes, but not all viruses evolve at the
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

retroviruses

segmented viruses

Explanation:

A retrovirus is a type of RNA virus that inserts a copy of its genome into the DNA of a host cell that it invades resulting in changing the original genome of that cell. There are about three examples of retroviruses, they are

* HIV

* Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1)

* Human T-lymphotropic virus type 2 (HTLV-II)

It should be understood that there is a difference between virus and retrovirus. This is that a retrovirus inserts its genome into the host's genome unlike the virus.

Segmented viruses are viruses that package all of their genome segments into a single particle.

In this case, these viruses have high rate rate of genetic mutation and adaptation.
