Genetic Glitches and Their Fixes

Your DNA is literally full of typos right now and you probably have no idea. Think of your genes

like a sentence made of three-letter words. If you delete just one single letter,

everything shifts over and the entire message turns into total gibberish. That is a frameshift

mutation, and it usually breaks the protein completely. But here is the wild part.

Sometimes you swap a letter and absolutely nothing changes. It is called a silent mutation.

Your cells actually have a backup system where different codes create the exact same amino

acid. It is basically biological auto-correct saving you from your own genetic

glitches.
