Mutations result in gaining resistance...... by the collection of various mutations, will our body be able to make a new gene by itself? for eg. in prokaryates, antibiotic resistant genes are not present initially... but got over a period of time on exposure to the same (might be due to mutation). Similarly can collection of mutations (over a period of time) in the chromatin of ours yield new genes?..... Or do we gain new genes by endosymbiosis or by transposons?
