1. How are the amino acids formed from the codons in Mutation #1 different from those formed by the original codon pattern?


2. How are the amino acids formed from the codon in Mutation #2 different from those formed from the original codon pattern?


3. How do the mutations in your model relate to what you know about mutations?


4. Research Research mutations and find out if they are mostly good and add to the advancement of the organism or if they are mostly harmful resulting in the damage or possible death of the organism, or if they are neutral having no effect on the organism. Give statistics and cite your source of information.

Most mutations produce harmful effects but in few instances, mutations produce good effects.

What is a mutation?

A mutation is a change that occurs in the sequence of nucleotides in a DNA molecule.

The nucleotides in DNA molecules are transcribed to mRNA molecules.

In protein synthesis using mRNA molecules, the nucleotides are read in set of triplets known as codons.

Each codons codes for a specific amino acid.

Any mutation that results in the changes in the codons will result in synthesis of protein molecules different from the original protein.

Most mutations produce harmful effects as in such instances as:

sickle cell anaemia

cystic fibrosis, etc.

In few instances, mutations produce good effects such as in development of resistance to diseases.
