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.

Korvikt [17]

2. Parieto temporal suture.

3. Parietal bone.

4. Occipital bone.

5. Temporal bone.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The 1 as mentioned is the nasal bone. It is joint with the maxilla and forms the structure of nose.

The marking of 2 is the Parieto temporal suture. This suture is a squamosal suture, with a peculiar type of structure. This joins two bones namely parietal bone and temporal bone.

The 3 is the parietal bone. This bone joins with Frontal bone at front, temporal bone on sides, with another parietal bone on the middle, and occipital bone in the posterior part.

4 is the occipital bone which joins with the parietal bone in lambdoid suture.

And the 5 is the temporal bone present laterally to cranial cavity.

Would all pigs in a litter have the same father? what about non identical human twins or triplets
posledela

In the female pig reproductive cycle, more number of eggs are released during one ovulation cycle. That is why, the number of offsprings born is more. The father of the litter is same single animal only. Because the process of fertilization of sperms with the eggs released happen in a time duration of few hours only.

In case of humans as well, the father is same. This is because in human reproductive cycle, only one egg is released majorly, accept the case of fraternal twins where two eggs are released and both are fertilized by two different sperms, but again from the same father.
