1. | Polymorphism (variation at the genetic level) arises due to mutations. |
2. | Allelic sequence variation has traditionally been described as a DNA polymorphism if more than one variant (allele) at a locus occurs in the human population with a frequency greater than 1.00. |
3. | The probability of polymorphic variation to be observed in non-coding DNA sequence would be higher as mutations in these sequences may not have any immediate effect/impact on an individual’s reproductive ability. |
4. | For evolution and speciation, polymorphisms play a very important role. |
