GENES IN ACTION Section 1: Mutation and Genetic Change Key
... In genetics, a mutation is a change in the structure or amount of the genetic material of an organism. A genetic mutant is an individual whose DNA or chromosomes differ from some previous or normal state. For the most part, genetic differences among organisms originate as some kind of genetic mutati ...
