In chromatin, substitution mutations are most common in linker regions. Option d is the correct answer.
Mutation by substitution When one nucleotide base is replaced by another, this occurs. Mismatch mutation A type of substitution mutation in which a single nucleotide is replaced, resulting in the coding of an incorrect amino acid, which usually results in a malfunctioning protein. Silent mutations are the result of genetic code redundancy (degeneracy): This is false, as silent mutations are the result of a base substitution that has no discernible effect on a protein's amino acid sequence.
The ultimate source of energy for living things is the Sun. Plants and other photosynthetic organisms take the energy from sunlight to make glucose. This energy passes to other organisms through the food chain.
