1
Q
What is Variation?
A
Differences within a species
2
Q
What are Mutations?
A
Changes to the Genome
3
Q
Explain the variation process in genes?
A
As the gene codes for the sequence of amino acids that make up a protein, gene mutations lead to changes in the protein that it codes for.
4
Q
What is produced when a gene is altered?
A
genetic variant
