Lysis refers to the breaking of the cell wall or cell membrane. Without the cell wall or cell membrane, the cell wouldn't be able to hold its structures or its shape anymore. You can think of it as a cell exploding without its cell wall or cell membrane.

Why does a frameshift mutation usually cause more effects during protien sythesis than a point mutation

Levart [38]

Frameshift mutation affects codons downstream the point of mutation. The previous order of 3 nucleotide- sequences (codons) is consequently changed. This, therefore, changes the protein coded by the mRNA transcribed by the mutated DNA region. Frameshifts are mostly due to insertion or deletion mutations.
