Hi,

If a point mutation occurs during which  CGA changes to AGA, the mutation will be simply inherited to the offspring and there won't be any harsh effects on the health of individual.

This is because, both AGA and CGA code for same amino acid called Arginine.

We know that mutations posses harmful effects when they change the genetic sequence leading to the incorporation of incorrect amino acid in the organisms and their offspring. But in this case the mutation will not be harmful and will simply be transferred to the offspring and will have no effect on the functioning, fitness or survival of the organism

Hope it helps!:)

Nothing will happen since the last codon will still correspond to threonine.

The forelimbs of bats and humans have a very similar bone structure even though they appear very different on the outside
Vaselesa [24]

The forelimbs of all mammals are homologous traits, meaning that they originate from a common ancestral trait.

The correct answer is therefore C. Homologies (homologous traits), from the same common ancestor.

(To clarify, we know it is from a common ancestor because both bats and humans are mammals)
