Research an example of a mutation (different than the example below). Does it result in a disease? Is it life threatening? What are the effects of this mutation? What type of mutations is it (point, frameshift, insertion, deletion, substitution)? Include images if possible.
***For example: sickle cell anemia is a disease caused by a mutation in a gene that instructs the building of a protein call hemoglobin.This causes the red blood cells to become an abnormal, rigid, sickle shape. However, in African populations, having this mutation also protects against malaria.
