Answer:
The correct answer is option c. "frameshift mutations".
Explanation:
The reading frame of a gene is based on base-pair triplets, starting from the start codon until the ribosome encounters with the end codon. Base-pair additions and deletions are collectively referred to as frameshift mutations because they alter the reading frame of the gene. Base-pair additions and deletions break down the original sequence of the gene triplets, which alters the open reading frame and usually results in the production of non active proteins.
Chloroplasts are cell organelles that are key in the process of photosynthesis.
The chloroplasts have two distinct parts, one of them called the thylakoid containing the chlorophyll, a pigment essential for photosynthesis and the stroma, a liquid part that contains DNA molecules, enzymes, and ribosomes.
