Answer:
d) a polypeptide missing an amino acid.
Explanation:
Deletion is a type of mutation when one or more codons from the reading frame are removed. This results in the production of a relatively shorter mRNA that lacks one or more codons otherwise present in the non-mutated mRNA. When there is a deletion of a single codon in the gene for cystic fibrosis, the resultant shorter mRNA codes for a polypeptide chain that does not carry one amino acid. For example, deletion of one codon results in deletion of a Phe residue present at position 508 in CFTR. The mutated transmembrane protein CFTR folds in an improper way.

The reinforcer does not need to be financial or even tangible. Positive comments and approval can be reinforcers that strengthen associated behaviors.</span>
<span>You
are right in that bananas contain potassium and K-40 is a naturally
occurring potassium isotope AND the K-40 in an average banana does decay
at a rate of about 31 ATOMS per second (half-life is > 1 billion
years). This is an extremely low level of radiation and nothing to worry
about. Bananas will definitely NOT cause a "nuclear winter."</span>
