Rare, random change in genetic material that can be inherited
Mutation changes the base sequence of the genes (e.g. ACT to AAT)
Allele - form of gene
Alleles exist because of mutation
i.e. A and a (dominant and recessive genes)
Mutation creates a new version of alleles
Creates new protein
Entirely different effect on phenotype
reasonable notes but would have benefited from more diagrams
