The type of mutation that results in the formation of a protein with one incorrect amino acid is called missense mutations. It is a mutation where a single nucleotide changes the results in a codon that codes for a different amino acid.

Answer:

The correct answer is: missense mutation.

Explanation:

Missense mutations are the ones that occur when the change in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA leads to a different amino acid in a protein because the codon wasn't what it was supposed to be.

<u>The change in one amino acid can make a </u><u>big difference</u><u> in a protein</u>, making it lose its function or making it function abnormally -most probably in a way that can be harmful to the cell and the body-.

Explain why the genetic code is called a triplet code
salantis [7]
The genetic code is broken down into a series of codons on the mRNA. Each codon consists of 3 nucleotides which (normally) correspond to a single amino acid (e.g. AUG codes for methionine). I say normally because you can also have a codon indicate a stop codon (so no amino acid will be inserted and instead the polypeptide chain will terminate). This mRNA molecule with its list of codons will instruct a ribosome to synthesize a protein according to this code. 

This code is the set of rules - based on the triplet or codon. This triplet code is universal - all organisms use the same codons to specify the placement of each of the 20 amino acids in a protein.
