Identify the types of point mutations depicted. glycine glycine missense mutation nonsense mutation silent mutation lysine stop missense mutation nonsense mutation silent mutation

Respuesta :

Answer to question 1:

The correct answer is option D which is silent mutation.

The glycine-glycine mutation: Silent mutation.

Explanation:

  • Mutations are the change in the nucleotide sequence of genetic material due to substitution, deletion or insertion of the nucleotides leading to changed protein.
  • There are many types of mutations.
  • If a mutation causes no effect on the protein produced, it is known as the silent mutation. It is usually due to substitution of one nucleotide with the same type of nucleotide as in glycine glycine mutation.

Answer to question 2:

The correct answer is option C which is non sense mutation.

Lysine stop mutations: Nonsense mutations.

Explanation:

Mutations are the change in the nucleotide sequence of genetic material due to substitution, deletion or insertion of the nucleotides leading to changed protein.

There are many types of mutations which leads to the early and delayed termination of the transcription of a gene.

If a mutation of a single nucleotide causes termination of transcription, it is known as nonsense mutation.

As in case of lysine stop.

The mutation that is depicted is a silent mutation. The correct option is D.

What is mutation?

The mutation is changing in the DNA sequence or gene due to mutagens.

Mutagens are factors that induce mutation, such as radiations.

Silent mutations are those whose effects do not show on the phenotype of the organism.

Thus, the correct option is D, mutation.
