3.30 - Mutation

-Certain processes/events result a change it the base sequance (ACT --> AAT)
-this change creates a new version of the allele
-This allele can produce an entirely different protein and a different effect on the phenotype (Big A, Little a)
-The reasons why different alleles exist is because of the process known as mutation
-Mutation changes the base sequence
