Question

How did you create a silent mutation? Explain, giving the code for the triplet where you made your substitution, before and after the mutation.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Silent mutations are mutations in DNA that do not have an observable effect on the organism's phenotype. They are a specific type of neutral mutation. The phrase silent mutation is often used interchangeably with the phrase synonymous mutation; however, synonymous mutations are not always silent, nor vice versa.
