What Is a Standard Drink? A standard drink is any drink that contains about 14 grams of pure alcohol (about 0.6 fluid ounces or 1.2 tablespoons). Below are standard drink equivalents as well as the number of standard drinks in different container sizes for each beverage.
A single-nucleotide polymorphism, often abbreviated to SNP (/ËsnÉªp/; plural /ËsnÉªps/), is a variation in a single nucleotide that occurs at a specific position in the genome, where each variation is present to some appreciable degree within a population (e.g. > 1%).
Point mutation is a random SNP (single-nucleotide polymorphism) mutation in the deoxyribonucleic acid that occurs at one point. Point mutations usually take place during DNA replication. DNA replication occurs when one double-stranded DNA molecule creates two single strands of DNA, each of which is a template for the creation of the complementary strand. A single point mutation can change the whole DNA sequence.
