Crossing over occurs during meiosis when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material. Both crossing over and mutation can introduce genetic variation, though crossing over involves the exchange of DNA between matching chromosomes while mutation involves changes to DNA. Crossing over and mutation are important sources of genetic diversity that can produce beneficial traits and drive evolution.
Changes in the nucleotide sequence of DNA
May occur in somatic cells (aren’t passed to offspring)
May occur in gametes (eggs & sperm) and be passed to offspring

Changes in the nucleotide sequence of DNA
May occur in somatic cells (aren’t passed to offspring)
May occur in gametes (eggs & sperm) and be passed to offspring
Mutations happen regularly
Almost all mutations are neutral
Chemicals & UV radiation cause mutations
Many mutations are repaired by enzymes
Some type of skin cancers and leukemia result from somatic mutations
Some mutations may improve an organism’s survival (beneficial)
chromosome mutations=
Five types exist:
Deletion
Inversion
Translocation
Nondisjunction
Duplication
