    The document defines and provides context for several genetic terms. It defines a point mutation as a single nucleotide change, insertion or deletion that alters DNA sequence. It defines DNA as the molecule encoding genes that determine an organism's structure and function and is transmitted from generation to generation. A gene is defined as the basic unit of heredity, consisting of a segment of DNA on a chromosome that codes for a protein leading to a specific characteristic or function.

    An alteration in DNA sequence caused by a single nucleotide base change, insertion, or deletion”

    “DNA

    Synonym: deoxyribonucleic acid

    The molecule which encodes the genes responsible for the structure and function of an organism and
    allows for transmission of genetic information from one generation to the next”

    “gene
