Describe the implications for organisms

Reference no: EM13112822

Compare and contrast mutation rate and mutation frequency. Describe the implications for organisms that have long life spans (e.g., humans) and short life spans (e.g., mice). Spontaneous mutation rates in humans are generally higher than in E. coli . Why? What would you expect the mutation frequency to be in each organism?
