Of course it is perceivable that another mutation could undo the previous
one but in any event the number of likely candidates is far less than the
initial number. Yes the probability of a mutation is not related to
previous mutations but the likelyhood of the mutation to undo the previous
mutution is far smaller than the initial mutation which could have been at
any position.

JQ---Should the reverse mutation apply at he same location? It takes more
than one nucleotide to code for an amino acid. Because of this the
mutation would not have to be at the exact location to produce a different
amino acid. Since we are talking about random, the chances that a mutation
will occur at a certain position start over each time mutations are made
possible.
