Gametes are sex cells (sperm and egg); they are haploid; they have half the chromosomes or 1 set of chromosomes # 1 – 23. Somatic cells are body cells; they are DIPLOID; they contain a complete set of chro ...

Point mutation

A point mutation, or single base modification, is a type of mutation that causes a single nucleotide base change, insertion, or deletion of the genetic material, DNA or RNA. The term frameshift mutation indicates the addition or deletion of a base pair. A point mutant is an individual that is affected by a point mutation.Repeat induced point mutations are recurring point mutations, discussed below.
