	Mutation. We've all heard of it. The evil mutant monster attacks the innocent citizens. In reality, however mutations are much more minor. Well, they can't really be called minor, just not as exteme. A mutation is the change of the hereditary material of the cell.      Mutations vary from the rare Delta 32, to devastating diseases we've all heard of, like cancer.      Most are harmful, but some of them are not, like Delta 32 or Concord grapes. No, I'm not kidding. Concord grapes are mutated from smaller, less juicier grapes.      And then there are the harmful ones, such as Sickle Cell Anemia (a.k.a Sickle Cell Disease) or Cancer (all forms).
