2. Consider a gene with a particular function. Mutation X and mutation Y cach cause defects in the function of the encoded protein, yet a gene containing both mutations X and Y encodes a protein that works even better than the original protein. The odds are exceedingly small that a single mutational event will generate both mutations X and Y. Explain a simple way that an organism with a mutant gene containing both mutations X and Y...
