The table below shows different types of mutations in different positions in four genes. Choose the letter (A to E), from the drop-down menu, that represents the most likely type of protein that will be produced from each of these mutated genes. A: completely normal protein B: functional protein with ONE amino acid different from normal C: non-functional protein with ONE amino acid different from normal D: non-functional protein with MANY amino acids different from normal E: no protein at all Answer Type of mutation Position of mutation in gene (A, B, C, D, or E) before the part of the gene that specifies the active site of the enzyme 2 base pair insertion Inonsense immediately before the stop codon in the part of the gene that specifies the active site of the enzyme silent 1 base pair insertion in an intron

Question
The table below shows different types of mutations in different positions in four genes. Choose the letter (A to E), from the
drop-down menu, that represents the most likely type of protein that will be produced from each of these mutated genes.
A: completely normal protein
B: functional protein with ONE amino acid different from normal
C: non-functional protein with ONE amino acid different from normal
D: non-functional protein with MANY amino acids different from normal
E: no protein at all
Answer
Type of mutation
Position of mutation in gene
(A, B, C, D, or E)
before the part of the gene that specifies
the active site of the enzyme
2 base pair insertion
Inonsense
immediately before the stop codon
in the part of the gene that specifies the
active site of the enzyme
silent
1 base pair insertion
in an intron
