& - whether sperm on eggs they're new calls formed through all division Our DNA is highly similar to our parents. Yet they are specific locations with D novo variant make our DNA distinct (from our parents) few mertations they're "novo variants". ② existing as a single cell in the parents - but when fertilized and born as a human the individual carries that mutation for life. Goo (If there's a mutation , these people are bonn whith its early deth affects the proteins that produce (a) (a) issues in musculoskeletal Formation no concept for DNA bases - contrasting gene corresponds to a unit that produces proteins (FGFR3 gene) - If a mutations occur within the FGFR3 gene alter the they can protein no affect no further & amino acids are - - - Produced E We refer to this as a stop, codon and mutations that create such stop codons are called nonsense variants , meaning mutations that can not to be translated Most of us carry these 17 mutations without any significant effect These mutations, they don’t significantly impact us, and have been passed down from ancient humans to the present ⑧ - - They actually influence our appearance, thoughts, and all our biological activities to some extent ü ü ü
