Offside in open play Offside is quite a complicated rule of rugby union, so make sure you pay attention and listen to what the referee is saying. If a player is in front of a team-mate in possession of the ball, or in front of their team-mate who last played the ball, they will be offside if: 1  They are actively trying to play the ball. 2  Do not retire within 10m of an opponent who is waiting for the ball.
FRAMESHIFT MUTATION. This type of mutation occurs when the addition or loss of DNA bases changes a geneÂ´s reading frame. Extra base pairs may be added (insertions) or removed (deletions) from the DNA of a gene. The number can range from one to thousands. Collectively, these mutations are called indels.
Point mutations are the most common type of gene mutation. Also called a base-pair substitution, this type of mutation changes a single nucleotide base pair. Silent Mutation: Although a change in the DNA sequence occurs, this type of mutation does not change the protein that is to be produced. This is because multiple genetic codons can encode for the same amino acid. Amino acids are coded for by three nucleotide sets called codons.
