Answer:

The correct answer will be : would lead to permanent mutation in DNA and cause cancer.

Explanation:

DNA replication is a complex process to make exact copy of the DNA.

Errors which occur during the process of replication caused by mis-pairing of base pair or by addition or deletion of nucleotides can become permanent mutations after the next cell division as DNA replication takes place during S-phase of cell division and once established cell no longer recognize them as error. These accumulated permanent errors or mutation can produce tumors causing cancer in organisms.

Translation is a process involved in the synthesis of proteins from intermediate mRNA within cell which is a functional part of gene expression not cell division.

Thus, would lead to permanent mutation in DNA and cause cancer is the correct answer.

Answer:

Nightmares in children may disturb them mentally and a child can individual develop the fear against a particular thing. Children can see fearful images and unrelated pictures in their nightmares.

The Millicent father is not completely right as she does not completely have nightmares. Sleep terrors might occur during NREM ( non-rapid eye movement) sleep.
