Question 6
Explain how a mutation in DNA can affect an organism’s traits.
Include how DNA, mRNA, amino acids, and proteins are connected, and describe an example such as sickle cell anemia or camouflage.
give me a one sentence answer

Answer 1

A mutation in DNA changes the nucleotide sequence so the mRNA transcript may carry different codons that insert different amino acids into a protein, altering its structure or function and thus an organism’s trait—for example, a single-base change in the hemoglobin gene replaces one amino acid, causing hemoglobin to polymerize and red blood cells to become sickle-shaped, whereas mutations in pigment proteins can change camouflage.
