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.
