A thymine is changed to an adenine in one DNA codon which causes a particular disorder. Which statement explains how the change in the DNA codon leads to this disorder? * The deletion mutation prevents the production of an important protein in the organism. O The insertion mutation caused the production of extra protein in the organism. O The substitution causes a different protein to be produced in the organism. OThe frameshift mutation stops the production of a protein in the organism.

O The substitution causes a different protein to be produced in the organism. The insertion mutation caused the production of extra protein in the organism. The deletion mutation prevents the production of an important protein in the organism. Which type of mutations are the least harmful to an organism? * Duplication O Substitution Insertion
A gene contains the sequence CGCATACGGTAC that results in the amino acid sequence arg-ile-arg-tyr. A mutation in this gene removes the first G in the strand.What is true of this mutation's effect on the phenotype?1.It will affect the phenotype because although most of the protein will be identical, the first amino acid will be different.2.It will not affect the phenotype because the protein will be identical to the original protein.3.It will affect the phenotype because all the amino acids past this point will be different from the original protein.4.It will not affect the phenotype because only the first amino acid is different from the original protein.
What is an anticodon, and where are they found? O a. Anticodons are complementary to codons, and are found in DNA genes O b. Anticodons are complementary to codons, and are embedded in tRNA molecules O c. Anticodons are antiparallel to codons ("backwards codons") and are found on the coding strand of the DNA gene O d. Anticodons encode amino acids and are found in mRNA molecules
If the coding region of a gene (the exons) contains 2,100 base pairs of DNA, would a missense mutation cause a protein to be shorter, longer, or the same length as the normal 700 amino acid proteins? What would be the effect of a nonsense mutation? A sense mutation?
