Genetic mutation is when the base pairs of DNA are changed. There are three basic types of mutation; deletion, addition, and substitution. Deletion is when a base pair is removed from the strand of DNA. Addition is when an extra base pair is added to the strand of DNA. And substitution is when a base pair is traded out with a different base pair.
