Question

Many diseases, cancers and even normal human variations can be caused by mutations and variations in the DNA nucleotide sequence. The most likely immediate result of DNA having a different nucleotide sequence is that_______________.

Answer 1

Answer:

This results in alteration of  polypeptide sequences of the protein ; resulting in wrong sequence  of amino acids  been coded for  ; leading to translation of  wrong amino sequence , wrong polypeptide chains being  expressed and eventually  wrong  gene expression.

This is based on the fact that  a gene is a length of DNA that codes for a particular polypeptide, therefore if this length is disrupted, then the polypeptide and protein been coded for will also be affected.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

the sequence of the protein's polypeptide would be altered consequently.

Explanation:

Remembering that genetic code is specific i.e. unambiguous. Translation is strictly codon specific and may be redundant. Any genetic alteration invariably affect the sequence of the resulting polypeptide.
