Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) consist of differences in a single nucleotide within a DNA sequence. These differences can occur naturally within the population, leading to genetic variation. SNPs are commonly analyzed in genetic studies for their association with certain traits or diseases.
