<h3>Answer:</h3><h2>A. Missense.</h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

Since the resulting nucleotide is offset from its initial sequence by only one parallel nucleotide we can definitely say it is Missense mutation. This sort of a mutation is known as a nonsynonymous mutation, there is only one direct substitution that occurs in the codon producing a different amino acid.

Rosalind Franklin used x-ray diffraction to record how x-rays scatter when bounced off the surface of DNA molecules.

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

e) All of the answers are correct

Explanation:

The first X-ray picture of DNA taken in 1952 by Rosalind Franklin using the X-ray crystallography technique revealed the helical shape of DNA. Based on this discovery, it was discovered later on that the DNA molecule was made of two chains of nucleotides and at high humidity i.e when exposed to water it becomes long and thin.
