- Mutations – Introductory Biology
Mutations can also be the result of the addition of a nucleotide, known as an insertion, or the removal of a base, also known as deletion Sometimes a piece of DNA from one chromosome may be joined to another chromosome or to another region of the same chromosome; this is known as translocation
- Population Genetics: How population evolve – Introductory Biology
Mutation Mutations are changes to an organism’s DNA and are an important driver of diversity in populations Species evolve because of mutations accumulating over time The appearance of new mutations is the most common way to introduce novel genotypic and phenotypic variance
- Mechanisms of Evolution – Environmental Biology
Mutations are changes in the DNA A single mutation can have a large effect, but in many cases, evolutionary change is based on the accumulation of many mutations Gene flow is any movement of genes from one population to another and is an important source of genetic variation Sex can introduce new gene combinations into a population
- Does Sex Lead to Fewer Mutations? – Introductory Biology: Evolutionary . . .
39 Does Sex Lead to Fewer Mutations? Mutations are a fact of life All organisms possess DNA that is different from the DNA they inherited, and this altered DNA, or mutation, is the ultimate source of all genetic variation Some have suggested that one of the benefits of sex is its ability to rid the body of harmful (or deleterious) mutations Sex and DNA repair Mutations arise from random
- Population Genetics: Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium – Introductory Biology
The Hardy-Weinberg principle assumes conditions with no mutations, migration, emigration, or selective pressure for or against genotype, plus an infinite population While no population can satisfy those conditions, the principle offers a useful model against which to compare real population changes

- Introduction to phenotypic variation and patterns of inheritance . . .
21 Introduction to phenotypic variation and patterns of inheritance Figure 1: Experimenting with thousands of garden peas, Mendel uncovered the fundamentals of genetics (credit: modification of work by Jerry Kirkhart) Look around any population, whether of people, plants, or bacteria, and you’ll notice a wide array of differences among individuals These observable characteristics (ranging
