How would a mutation affect how DNA is eventually read when it forms a protein
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Mutated DNA affects proteins during translation which can cause different proteins to be created

Explanation:

The process of protein-synthesis is when mRNA is translated into different proteins, which takes place in the ribosome.  Mutated DNA can cause something known as a "frameshift mutation" where the codons are either inserted, duplicated, and or deleted. The mutation in the mRNA will cause the codons to be misarrageded effectively causing a different protein to be created! We know this through our codon chart, which can be searched for online.

I recommend looking more into Protein Synthesis if you have further questions, I hope this answer helped!
