Answer:

Elephants.

Explanation:

Elephants are mammals and the largest existing mammals. Elephants have risk of losing a population due to the death of individual because the reproduce and produce few offsprings. Elephants normally give birth to a calf in a year but sometimes twins are give birth and they get pregnant for 18 to 22 months. The calves of elephants are some how fragile and they may not survive to adulthood if the mother cannot feed them with milk. Elephants has low multiplication rates and they are endangered species and going into extinction because of the activities of man.

Compare to bacteria , rats and flies that have high multiplication rate, elephants reproduce few offsprings in a year.

Which of the following sequences shows a frameshift mutation compared to the wild-type mRNA sequence?
Butoxors [25]

Option C:

B. wild-type 5-AUGCAUACAUUGGAGUGA-3 mutant 5'-AUGCAUACAUCUGGAGUGA- 3' 

Explanation:

A frameshift mutation is a genetic mutation such that the triplet nature of gene expression by codons, the insertion or deletion occurs in such as way that it alters the complete sequence of 3 codon sets and can change the reading frame, resulting in a completely different translation from the original.

As it is pertinent to understanding that all genes are normally translated in sets of 3 codons, which typically describes and explain a unique amino acid sequence. Thus, if a frame shift mutation occurs, it can affect many amino acid sequences and finally the entire protein.  

If we look at option B:

wild-type 5-AUG   CAU  ACA  UUG  GAG  UGA-3  

mutant 5’-    AUG   CAU  ACA  UCU  GGA  GUG  A-3’  

An insertion of a base Uracil showed at the end of 3rd codon which affected and altered the whole sequence of codon triplets. This changed all next codons and finally all next amino acids will be altered.
