Answer:

introduces a premature stop codon into the mRNA

Explanation:

A nonsense mutation is a mutation in which an amino acid–specifying codon is changed into a termination codon or stop codon. A stop codon is a codon that does not code for any amino acid and serves to terminate the process of protein synthesis as ribosomes encounter it on the mRNA.

There are three stop codons: UAA, UAG, UGA. A nonsense mutation introduces a stop codon in place of an amino acid encoding codon. It results in the formation of truncated protein which is shorter than the normal protein. Truncated proteins are mostly nonfunctional.

Brrunno [24]
The answer is that his blood pressure could increase. 

It is known that one of the functions of the kidney is to control blood volume. But, when one kidney is removed, the other one that remained must work for the both. So, the one remained kidney will try to control increased blood pressure, but if the one is not kidney is not enough, it could lead to increase of the blood pressure of the patient.
