Answer:

The answer is C. A frame shift mutation.

Explanation: frameshift mutation (also called a framing error or a reading frame shift) is a genetic mutation caused by indels (insertions or deletions) of a number of nucleotides in a DNA sequence that is not divisible by three. Due to the triplet nature of gene expression by codons, the insertion or deletion can change the reading frame (the grouping of the codons), resulting in a completely different translation from the original. The earlier in the sequence the deletion or insertion occurs, the more altered the protein. A frameshift mutation is not the same as a single-nucleotide polymorphism in which a nucleotide is replaced, rather than inserted or deleted. A frameshift mutation will in general cause the reading of the codons after the mutation to code for different amino acids. The frameshift mutation will also alter the first stop codon ("UAA", "UGA" or "UAG") encountered in the sequence. The polypeptide being created could be abnormally short or abnormally long, and will most likely not be functional.

The frequency of carriers for a rare autosomal recessive genetic condition is 0.04 in a population. Assuming this population is
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Hardy-Weinberg principle states that frequency of alelle and genotype will remain constant in the absence of genetic disturbances such as mutation, no change in the DNA sequence, the population must be large and others

the principle is defined by the equation

p² + 2pq + q² = 1

where the frequency of the dominant allele is p, and the frequency of the recessive allele is q. Going by the what is given which is for the carriers is 0.04 = 2pq

substitute the value into the expression

p² + 0.04  +  q² = 1;  The information is not enough to calculate either p or q going by the equation generated.
