9th grade biology sem 2 / please help i'll rate you the brainiest 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.

3. To identify dominant mutations, breed the

mutant individual to a wild-type individual.

Dominant mutations will be visible in the F1

4. The statement that correctly identifies how a

genetic mutation affects an organism is that

mutations can alter or stop the production

proteins in a way that either alters the

appearance or quality of life of an organism.

Explanation:

A genetic mutation occurs at the molecular

level, in the DNA, and consists of the change of

a specific sequence of nucleotides in the

nucleic acid.

Since the sequence of DNA bases determines

genetic information necessary for the synthesis

of specific proteins, changes in the sequence

can produce alterations in structural and

functional proteins -due to changes in the

sequence of amino acids or incomplete

synthesis- that affect the appearance or

functioning of a living being.

The other options are not correct because:

Although some mutations go unnoticed,

most can cause alterations in organisms.

Not all mutations are harmful or lead to

premature death.

Mutations do not produce new abilities.

Explanation:

the correct answer is b
