Varm up Wednesd... Mutations ANALYZE Many people with balanced translocation mutations are not aware they have them until they try to have children. How is this possible? Select all correct answers. A. The person still has a full set of genes. B. There is no change in people's DNA until after they have children. C. Children inherit one chromosome from each parent, so they may not receive a full set of genes. O D. Cells easily repair these types of mutations, so they should not cause health issues unless repair mechanisms are not functioning properly.

Mitochondrial Mutations

A mitochondrion is a cellular organelle that serves as the site for cellular respiration and energy production (ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate). It is a double-membrane-bound organelle and is only present in eukaryotic cells.
