Introduction:
Mutations are the sudden or random changes in the basic genetic structure of a living or either developing organism. The mutation could be an outcome of chemical instability during DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) replication or due to the exposure of an organism with a mutagen like UV (ultraviolet light) light or chemical carcinogens. It is the ultimate event that brings genetic mutation.
