What is a codon?

• It is a three letter section of bases that are read by ribosomes - it allows for the correct amino acid to be linked together

• They are the codes on the DNA (hence "code-on"

• It is a type of mutation that occurs when there has been a substitution, deletion or insertion.

Would a mutation in the DNA of a skin cell be passed on to an offspring?

• Yes, because all change to the DNA is passed on to the offspring

• Without knowing the animal, it would be hard to tell whether or not the mutation would be passed on.

• No. Only mutations that occur in the gametes (sex cells) are passed on to the offspring
