Answer:

C

Explanation:

The mutation seen is most likely due to a frameshift mutation. A nucleotide was added or removed without replacement. This shifted the codon reading sequence by one nucleotide. Therefore the codon downstream of the mutation will code for different amino acids.

Musya8 [376]
The answer to this question is lactic acid. The reason why sports psychologists would need to look for a buildup of this chemical is because it is the chemical that produces pain or "feeling the burn" in an exercise when someone pushes their limit. Also, after so long, a person with a lactic acid buildup needs to take a break because high levels of lactic acid is dangerous for the bloodstream.
