Question

Are all mutations bad?

  1. Yes
  2. No
  3. Maybe be
  4. None

hintHint:

Gene may produce an altered protein, it may produce no protein, or it may produce the usual protein. Most mutations are not harmful.

The correct answer is: No


    • The mutations cause changes in the structure or function of the organism. Not all mutations cause adverse effects
    • Only a small percentage of variants cause genetic disorders, and most have no impact on health or development. For example, some variants alter a gene's DNA sequence but do not change the function of the protein made from the gene.
