1 Year 10, Pathway C 2012

2  Define the term mutation  Describe useful and harmful examples of mutations  Describe how mutations occur

3  A mutation is a change in the genes (DNA) caused by radiation or chemicals

4  Mutations may be beneficial to an individual  Lactose tolerance  Resistance to antibiotics  Mutations may be harmful to an individual  Seedless grapes  Cancer  Mutations may do nothing!

5  Mutations may be beneficial to an individual  Lactose tolerance  Resistance to antibiotics  Mutations may be harmful to an individual  Seedless grapes  Cancer  Mutations may do nothing or not be influential!  Blue eyes

6  Mutations are caused by:  Radiation  Chemicals

7  Define the term mutation  Describe useful and harmful examples of mutations  Describe how mutations occur
