The type of mutation that occurred here is an inversion of three nucleotide bases (Option A).

An inversion is a type of mutation where linear order of nucleotide in the mutated sequence is inverted.

In this case, we have an inversion that involves the following bases (bold highlighted) AATCGC TAC GCACGTCAG and AATCGC CAT GCACGTCAG.

In conclusion, this mutation is an inversion of the genomic sequence (Option A).

How are lava and magma alike?
Mariulka [41]
Hi there!

Magma is the same as lava, but just inside of the volcano before it is spewed out. (Lava is when it is spewed out.) They are basically the same thing (just different terms to describe it.)

Hope this helps!
