There are three types of muscles namely; (1) cardiac muscles, (2) smooth muscles, and (3) skeletal muscles. Sarcomeres are the functional contractile unit of both cardiac and skeletal muscles; both of which are striated muscles. Smooth muscles, on the other hand, have no sarcomeres instead the contractile structures (actin and myosin) are dispersed within the cell body.

Manny is using a computer model to investigate the effects of substitution mutations. The model presents Manny with a long base
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

The most likely explanation for the truncated polypeptide -due to the substitution of cytosine for adenine- is that mutation introduced a stop codon in the middle of the gene.

Explanation:

A codon consists of three nucleotides -in the RNA chain- whose order determines a specific amino acid. Not all codons code for amino acids, as there are termination codons, also called stop codons, which are UAG, UGA and UAA.

If in Manny's computer model, the substitution of cytosine by adenine produced a termination codon, the synthesis of a peptide is stopped prematurely resulting in a truncated peptide.
