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.

irinina [24]

Answer:

Lack of food sources, the lack of habitat, competition and evolving ways to compete.

Explanation:

Lack of food sources, the lack of habitat, competition and evolving ways to compete are the ecological conditions that is responsible for the rapid diversity of some lineages. With the passage of time, changes occurs in the lineages due to climate change which causes some species to extinct and some to evolve which attains adaptability to the environment. Due to climate change food is unavailable to the organisms which is the main cause of its extinction.
