Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Changes in the nucleotide sequence of an organism are known as mutation. Changes in the nucleotide sequence results in the change in genome. Hence, the phenotypes and many other characters are changed. Mutations are said to be the key demand of evolution. Mutation may occur due to many reasons, such as exposure to UV rays. Many internal factors can also contribute to mutation.
