What occurs during frame shift mutation

Biology
1 answer:
ICE Princess25 [194]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: There is addition or deletion of one or more nucleotides in a DNA sequence which alters the original reading frame of the DNA.

Explanation: In frameshift mutation, one or more nucleotides is added to or deleted from a DNA sequence resulting in altered reading frame.

For example, a DNA sequence having an original reading frame: (ACT)(GAG)(CCG)(TAT)(G is changed to (ACG)(AGC)(CGT)(ATG) when a thymidine nucleotide at position 3 is deleted. This frameshift mutation will result in the synthesis of complementary DNA strand with an altered nucleotide sequence during replication and an RNA sequence with an altered sequence during transcription and a protein with an altered amino acid sequence.

¿Qué características crees que deben tener los métodos anticonceptivos para ser eficaces en el control de la natalidad?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Los métodos anticonceptivos para ser eficaces en el control de la natalidad deben ser seguros para las personas que los utilizan, es decir, no tener efectos adversos, o al menos, la menor cantidad posible. Ser reversibles, es decir, que no generen infertilidad de por vida. Deben ser además fáciles de usar, cómodos y fáciles de conseguir, esto es, económicos. Además deben ser eficientes en su objetivo de evitar la concepción, que es para lo que fueron creados.

Explanation:

La tasa de eficacia de un método anticonceptivo se mide por la cantidad de embarazos que se producen cada 100. Esta parece ser la característica más importante, y si bien es una de las más importantes, hay que tener en cuenta todos los otros factores mencionados, es decir que la gente pueda acceder a ellos, sean cómodos, seguros y a un precio coherente.
