A gene mutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene. Mutations range in size from a single DNA building block (DNA base) to a large segment of a chromosome.
A chromosomal mutation is a mutation involving a long segment of DNA, it is a any change in the structure or arrangement of the chromosomes. These mutations can involve deletions, insertions, or inversions of sections of DNA. In some cases, deleted sections may attach to other chromosomes, disrupting both the chromosomes that loses the DNA and the one that gains it.It is also referred to as a chromosomal rearrangement
The differences between Gene mutation and Chromosome mutation are ;
1- Chromosome mutations involve changes in the structure of a chromosome OR the loss or gain of a chromosome while Gene mutations involve a change in the nucleotide -base sequence of a gene on a DNA molecule.
2- Chromosomal mutations are changes in the structure or the numbers of chromosomes (a gain or loss).
Gene mutations involve changes in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA molecule.
3-A gene mutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene. Mutations range in size from a single DNA building block (DNA base) to a large segment of a chromosome while a chromosomal mutation is a mutation involving a long segment of DNA, it is a any change in the structure or arrangement of the chromosomes. These mutations can involve deletions, insertions, or inversions of sections of DNA. In some cases, deleted sections may attach to other chromosomes, disrupting both the chromosomes that loses the DNA and the one that gains it.It is also referred to as a chromosomal rearrangement
4-gene mutation is just a substitute in any old random nucleotide for any old random nucleotide
chromosome mutation is missing of chromosome or +1 chromosome (down's syndrome).
Gene mutations are changes in the DNA sequence of a gene, leading to alterations in the protein encoded by that gene. Chromosomal mutations involve changes in the structure or number of chromosomes, affecting multiple genes on the chromosome. Gene mutations typically involve smaller segments of DNA, while chromosomal mutations involve larger portions of DNA.
There are many thousands of different mutations.
A chromosomal mutation is a change in the structure or number of a chromosome. This can involve rearrangements, deletions, duplications, or inversions of genetic material within a chromosome. These mutations can lead to genetic disorders or affect an individual's development and health.
Usher syndrome is a relatively rare genetic disorder caused by a mutation. The gene is not carried on one of the sex chromosomes (X or Y).
Cystic fibrosis is primarily caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, which is located on chromosome 7. These mutations can result in a defective or non-functioning CFTR protein, leading to the characteristic symptoms of the disease.
Breast cancer can be caused by a combination of chromosomal mutations and gene mutations. Chromosomal mutations involve changes to the structure or number of chromosomes, while gene mutations affect specific genes that regulate cell growth and division. These mutations can disrupt normal cell functions and lead to the development of breast cancer.
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
The answers is simple read it in a book
gene mutation, chromosomal abberations
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
tyt
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
mutation is an alteration in the nucleotide sequence of a gene whereas variation is any difference between individuals of a particular species.
Neither. It is an extra #21 chromosome.
Yes, it is caused by a mutation in the gene for the protein CFTR.
There are many thousands of different mutations.

Hungtington's disease is a dominant mutation in the gene that codes for the protein 'Huntington' It only affects a single gene, the remainder of the chromosome is unaffected and therefore it is not a chromosomal abnormality
