How common are mutations?
Mutation occurs at a frequency of about 1 in every 1 billion base pairs
Everybody has about 6 mutations in each cell in their body!

If I have that many mutations, why don’t I
look weird? Mutations are not always seen.
Every part of your DNA doesn’t make a protein or trait.

Review
Many mutations occur naturally (during DNA replication)Many mutations are caused by mutagens (UV light, exposure to chemicals, radiation, etc.)
The mutation may be harmless (if it’s in junk DNA)Some mutations can cause disorders

• Which mutation would have the least effect on an organism?
• When would a mutation have the most effect on an organism?
Review
Substitution mutations have the least effect, because they only affect ONE amino acid.
Insertion and deletion mutations affect ALL proteins after the mutation. Also, mutations in egg and sperm can cause problems in offspring, whereas mutations in body cells only causes problems for that individual.

• Do mutations get passed on to offspring?
Review
Only if the mutation ends up in the egg or sperm. Mutations in body cells only affect the individual- not his/her children.

Review- Chromosomal Mutations
Any change in the DNA sequence is known as a mutation
Point mutations are changes in a single base pair in DNA
Frameshift mutations are the insertion or deletion of a single base causing the sequence to shift one way or the other
