Question

value: 6
match the frameshift mutation with is answer
a. does not affect amino acid sequence
b. changes amino acid sequence
c. changes an amino acid code into a stop code

1. silent mutation
2. missense mutation
3. nonsense mutation

Explanation:

A silent mutation is a type of point - mutation where the change in the DNA sequence does not result in a change in the amino - acid sequence due to the degeneracy of the genetic code. A missense mutation changes a single amino - acid in the sequence. A nonsense mutation changes an amino - acid codon into a stop codon, prematurely terminating translation.

Answer:

1. a. Does not affect amino acid sequence
2. b. Changes amino acid sequence
3. c. Changes an amino acid code into a stop code
