Answer: Gene mutations are the alterations of the nucleotide sequence of a gene. Gene mutation may alter the function of proteins in the body. Chromosomal mutations can be either an alteration of chromosome structure or chromosome number. The influence of chromosomal mutations is higher than gene mutations.
