The answer is C

Environmental DNA (eDNA) surveillance

Environmental DNA (eDNA) refers to DNA that can be extracted from environmental samples, such as water, soil or faeces, without first isolating any target organisms. It can also result from the decomposition of dead organisms. All living organisms, regardless of their size or ecology, leave traces of DNA in their environments, reflecting their current or past presence. eDNA is characterized by a complex mixture of nuclear, mitochondrial or chloroplast DNA, and can be intracellular (from living cells) or extracellular. It enables the detection of a species regardless of its life stage or gender. This technology has the potential to eliminate the need to capture or visually detect a target species, making it a particularly attractive alternative as a stand-alone assay for organisms that are hard to capture, difficult to collect, or that have small populations.

Katen [24]

Answer:

The mentioned case is an illustration of the missense mutation. A missense mutation is a kind of nonsynonymous substitution, that is, it is a mutation in which a variation in a solitary nucleotide leads to the formation of a codon, which encrypts for a distinct kind of amino acid.  

When a missense mutation takes place within a DNA, a modification in one of the RNA codon sequences results at the time of transcription. This change in codon will ultimately result in the formation of a different amino acid, which gets presented within a protein at the time of translation. Like in the given case, a change in codon resulted in the substitution of the amino acid tyrosine with an amino acid cysteine.
