MUTATION

Today we are here to talk about the scientific term mutation. you will be able to know what is exactly a mutation how it happens, why it happens, and where it happens. so without any delay let's go to our topic

In our daily routine, all things were going good and suddenly a bad thing or uncertain thing happens, then our routine gets destroyed. same as this mutation behave.

When a sequence in DNA changes uncertainly on its own it afterward creates a hazardous situation for that living entity without even warning. suddenly unknown changes further affect cells of the living organism and afterward, it affects the genotype and phenotype of the body and so on.

Causes of mutation

Mutation can be happened due to result of exposure to ionizing radiation, exposure to hazardous chemicals called mutagens, or infection by viruses. there are three types of mutation:

1) Chromosomal mutation which changes chromosome structure.

2) Point mutation creates changes in a single nucleotide.

3) Frameshift mutations are the addition or deletion of nucleotides.

A mutation may or may not produce detectable changes in the observable characteristics ( Phenotype ) of an organism. But produces a change in (Genotype ) in genetic sequence.

After mutation, the life of the organism becomes limited. the sequence of a gene can be altered in a number of ways. Gene mutations have varying effects on health depending on where they occur and whether they alter the function of genes. similarly the SARS- covid also changes its genetic sequence and transforms into a new variant by mutation. no one can predict the threats by mutation it generates automatically in any living being so everyone needs to be healthy or take precautions before handling chemicals to avoid direct exposure to skin. yes, you can keep many diseases far from you just by taking precautions. so stay healthy.
