Answer:
these statements are true
B) Insertions or deletions of single base-pairs within a protein coding sequence probably change the amino acid sequence
D) Missense mutations always change the amino acid sequence encoded by a gene
E) Nucleotide substitutions outside of the coding sequence can affect the expression of a gene.
Explanation:
B) insertion or deletion of nucleotide in coding region of DNA can change the amino acid sequence encoded.
D) missense mutation means that the change in nucleotide sequence resulting in change in amino acid sequence encoded by gene.
E) A mutation may alter the promoter of a gene, thereby affecting the rate of transcription.

Presence of a teratogen in the body of mother during pregnancy is responsible for mal growth of child or incomplete growth which may lead to abortion, still birth or even a defective child.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
A teratogen is a substance that is known to cause <em>defects</em> in growth of child during the intrauterine growth period. Thalidomide was used as a morning sickness drug which relieved the vomiting nature of the would be mother. But the presence of thalidomide was responsible for less growth of limbs of the child. Alcohol in intrauterine life may cause Fetal Alcoholic Syndrome which damages the fetus' sense organs and neural cord.
The presence of a teratogen during the 1st trimester is more serious than in last trimester because the main formation of different organs and systems take place in the 1st trimester and maturity takes place in third trimester.
