Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: A frameshift mutation will in general cause the reading of the codons after the mutation to code for different Aminoacids.

Explanation: The frameshift mutation will also alter the forst stop codon ("UAA", "UGA" or "UAG") encountered in the sequence.

A single insertion or deletion of a nucleotide will basically lead to a frameshift mutation where the “reading frame” is disrupted. Normally, amino acids are encoded by three nucleotides, called a codon.
