Name the mutagen:

Select the correct statements :- (A) Mutation causes changes in the genotype and the phenotype of an organism. (B) Chromosomal aberrations are commonly observed in cancer cells. (C) Sickle cell anemia is a classical example of point mutation. (D) Deletions and insertions of base pairs of DNA causes frame shift mutations.

Which of the following agents cause mutation through deamination :-

Assertion : The relationship between genes and DNA are best understood by mutation studies Reason : Frame shift mutation forms the genetic basis of proof that codon is a triplet and it is read in a contiguous manner.

A: Triplet genetic code can be confirmed by frame shift mutations. R : Frame shifing involves the change in protein product coded by triplet codons.

Read the following text and answer the following questions on the basis of the same: Mutation is sudden, discontinuous variation in genotype of an organism due to a change in its chromosomes and genes. Variation in DNA is a result of mutation. It is of three types : Gene mutation, chromosomal aberrations and gametic mutation. Gametic mutation is a change in chromosome number that brings effect on the phenotype, it is of two type - aneuploidy and euploidy. Mutation can be artificially produced by certain agents called mutagen. There are two major types of mutagens: physical and chemical mutagen. Which is the main category of mutation ?

Which of the following causes mutation (not polyploidy):-

which of the following will cause a left shift in oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve?
