Suppose that part of an amino acid sequence of a protein changed from tyrosine-proline-glycine-alanine to tyrosine-histidine-glycine-alanine. This change was most likely caused by a point mutation called a <u>substitution</u>.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Any protein is synthesized by joining a number of amino acids together. This amino acid is placed based on the sequences of the DNA , for every 3 sequence there is an amino acid that is synthesized and therefore it is called as a triplet codon, since there may be many sequence for a single amino acid we call it as degenerate codon.

Answer:
C. Primary, secondary, and tertiary structures would be altered
Explanation:
Frameshift mutations refer to the mutations that change the reading frame of the gene. Frameshift mutations are mostly caused by insertion or deletion of nucleotide since addition or loss of nucleotide alters all the codons present downstream of the point of the mutation site. If frameshift mutation occurs at the beginning of the protein sequence, all the downstream amino acids would be altered.
The changed amino acid sequence would alter the primary structure of the protein. Since the secondary and tertiary structure of proteins is determined by interactions between the R groups of amino acids, their polarity, charge, etc., the altered amino acid sequence would also alter secondary, and tertiary of the protein.
