Geenivirhe
Geenivirhe, often translated as gene error or genetic defect, refers to a permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene. These alterations can range from a single nucleotide change, known as a point mutation, to the deletion or insertion of entire segments of DNA. Geenivirhe is the fundamental cause of genetic disorders, which are inherited conditions that can affect an individual's health and development.
The majority of geenivirhe occur spontaneously during DNA replication or due to environmental factors like radiation
The consequences of a geenivirhe depend on the specific gene affected and the nature of the alteration.
Understanding geenivirhe is crucial in genetics and medicine. It forms the basis for diagnosing, treating, and
