A new research paper in the journal EMBO Reports describes how DNA damage can affect neural health and function.

Get a definition of the types of DNA mutations, including point mutations, frame shift mutations, insertions, and deletions.

Young girl will investigate sequencing and mutation of human DNA that causes deadly diseases 26761459 royalty-free Vector from Vecteezy for your project and explore over a million other vectors, icons and clipart graphics!

In General Biology, we've been learning genetics! We've studied both gene and chromosomal mutations. In this project, students could create their own mutations following a specific set of criteria. Level 2 student, Daphne, created such a colorful and easy to follow chart for her substitution, insertion, and deletion mutations! I love watching students not only grasp difficult concepts, but truly understand them and be able to manipulate those concepts on their own!
