Question

Rosa drew a diagram to compare substitution mutations and insertion mutations

Answer 1

May change the type of amnio acid

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: May change th etype of amino acid.

Explanation:

• Mutations are the changes produced in the nucleotide sequence of the genome.
• There are four main types of mutations - substitution, insertion, deletion, and frameshift.
• In a substitution mutation, a given base is changed by another. For example, in the sequence CAAGT, if C replaces G, it is a substitution mutation.
• In an insertion mutation, extra-base pairs get inserted in the existing sequence. For example, in the sequence CAAGT, if extra base G gets inserted after C, the new sequence would be CGAAGT.
• Both substitution and insertion mutations can thus change the codon and hence, the type of amino acid.
