1. What is a gene? - Answer: A gene is a heritable unit that dictates a specific trait or characteristic in an organism. 
2. How is an allele defined? - Answer: An allele is a specific variant of a gene that differs from other alleles by one or a few 
nucleotide bases and occupies the same locus as those alleles. 
3. What constitutes a genome? - Answer: The genome encompasses the complete set of genetic material found within an organism. 
4. What ...

Genetic Mutations
A detailed explanation of what genetic mutations are, how they occur, and the various types. Created by a graduate Biochemistry student who is now studying Biological Sciences at Cambridge University. This is designed to be used for all levels of learning, from GCSE to university. When learning biology at school, I often found that when some of the topics were too simplified I did not understand the information. Hence, I have created this document to be easy to understand but still fully explain...

1. Chromosomal Mutation - Definition: A chromosomal mutation refers to changes that occur either in the structure of a 
chromosome or in the number of chromosomes, which may result in the gain or loss of entire 
chromosomes. 
2. Law of Dominance - Definition: The law of dominance states that some alleles are dominant over others, meaning that 
the phenotype associated with a dominant allele will be expressed in the presence of a recessive allele....
