Mutations

One nucleotide base is changed so only one amino acid

is affected

• Substitution Mutation

• Point Mutation

• Translocation

• Inverse Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A permanent change in the DNA sequence

which can affect a single gene or group of genes

• Homeostasis

• Somatic Cell

• Chromosomal Mutation

• Gene Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-1

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A substitution mutation that has no effect

on amino acids sequence

• Insertion Mutation

• Translocation

• Silent Mutation

• Deletion Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A nucleotide base is inserted or deleted shifting the entire DNA sequence. Entire protein will be changed.

• Substitution Mutation

• Silent Mutation

• Frameshift Mutation

• Translocation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

A frameshift mutation where a nucleotide base

is removed from the DNA sequence.

• Deletion Mutation

• Substitution Mutation

• Translocation

• Silent Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

Mutations that involve parts of or all of

a chromosome

• Replication

• Deletion Mutation

• Chromosomal Mutation

• Transcription

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

Part of a chromosome is repeated

• Gene Mutation

• Point Mutation

• Deletion Mutation

• Duplication Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-1

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

Part of a chromosome is reversed.

• Inversion Mutation

• Deletion Mutation

• Translocation

• Point Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

Part of one chromosome is transported and attached

to a non-homologous chromosome

• Inversion Mutation

• Translocation Mutation

• Duplication Mutation

• Point Mutation

Tags

NGSS.HS-LS3-2

Failure of homologous chromosomes

to separate during meiosis.

Results in gametes with either one extra or one missing chromosome.

• Translocation

• Nondisjunction

• Replication

• Transcription
