A lot of factors are attached to the cause of mutation in human organisms. Radiation can cause accumulated damage in the gene. For examples X-rays, CT scans, etc. Heat or sun can also lead to the cause of mutations, and it is also how new variations arise, contributing to evolution by natural selection. Gene mutations is a heritable factor that controls a specific characteristic while mutations are what cause alteration to the gene which makes it more susceptible to symptoms exposure. The changes and the combination of amino acid makes the genetic calculations that cause the Sickle cell disease correspond to the creation of the disease. For Example, Base-Substitution Mutations is a single base mutation that being substituted by another
