a base sequence started out as ttttttaataccc. then a frame shift mutation changed the base sequence. which of the following could have been the result of this frameshift mutation?
tttataataccc...
ttttttaatacca...
ttttttaataccc...
tttttaataccc..
A frameshift mutation occurs due to the insertion or deletion of nucleotides, changing the reading - frame of the genetic code. The original sequence is TTTTTTAATACCC. Removing or adding nucleotides will cause a shift. The first option TTTATAATACCC shows a deletion of two 'T's, which would cause a frameshift. The other options do not have insertions or deletions that would cause a frameshift.
