Answer:
Single nucleotide deletion
Explanation:
Original DNA sequence:
A T A C G G T A
T A T G C C A T
Mutated DNA sequence:
A T C G G T A G
T A G C C A T C
In the mutated sequence, there is a nucleotide missing. It goes from ATACGGTA to ATCGGTAG. The A nucleotide is gone. This represents a single base pair deletion.
Even though it is only one base, this changes the way the entire sequence is interpreted. The DNA transcribed into an mRNA and then translated into a protein by reading triplet codons which correspond to specific amino acids.
So while the initial sequence would be read as:
ATA, CGG, TA...
The new sequence would be read as:
ATC, GGT, AG...
So the sequence of the protein is completely altered.
The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:
a. Increased temperature and pressure
b. Melting and crystallization
<span>c. Exposure and weathering </span>
<span>d. All of the above
</span>
I believe the correct answer is option C. It would be Exposure and weathering that would cause an igneous rock to become soil. <span>Weathering breaks rock down into small particles which are carried away by erosion and deposited somewhere, sometimes creating very verdant soils. </span>
The answer is d. :) you got this!
