DNA Polymerase makes a copying error in a gene and an additional base

gets put into that gene. Which of the following is the most reasonable
result? *
1. The codons on the mRNA transcript contain an extra base which causes the amino
acid chain to not make the desired protein.
2. This causes RNA polymerase to transcribe the gene backwards.
3. The causes RNA polymerase to not recognize the gene and therefore no transcription
takes place.
4. The RNA polymerase recognizes extra bases and won't transcribe them.
