The type of mutation that will eventually occur is A TO G BASE SUBSTITUTION. 
In this type of mutation,  what will happen is that, in all the points where adenine base is suppose to be inserted, it is the guanine base that will be inserted there. This is an example of base substitution error in DNA replication.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The mutation will be one base substitution mutation.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • In the newly forming strand only one G is inserted mistakenly.
  • As we know DNA replication is a semi conservative model.
  • In which two strands of double stranded DNA will be two separate templates for the two newly strands of DNA.
  • As one of the strand has one wrong nucleotide in its sequence. As if it is not repaired the substitution will become the part of newly formed strand formed from this mutated strand.
  • And this mutation will pass onto next generation with half correct DNA and half wrong DNA.

John had unattached earlobes like his father, but his mother has attached earlobes. What is johns genotype with unattached being
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Genotype refers to the complete genetic make-up and can also be referred to as the alleles an organism carries on a particular gene.

John's genotype with unattached being dominant is Aa.

  • Using A to represent the alleles
  • Since his mother has attached earlobes, her condition can only be inherited in the recessive condition (aa).
  • So for John to have an unattached earlobe, his father has to be either AA or Aa.
  • Therefore John's genotype would be Aa
