The types of mutations include:his type of mutation is a change in one DNA base pair that results in the substitution of one amino acid for another in the protein made by a gene.
GMOs, or genetically modified organisms are organisms whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering. Genetic engineering is the modification of an organism's phenotype by altering its genetic make-up. Genetic engineering is primarily performed by simple mating or gene recombination.
