<h2>Mutation will occur </h2>
Explanation:
Base excision repair operates for small DNA damage such as deaminated bases
- DNA glycosylase plays an important role in cleavage of glycosidic bond of abnormal base (does not cleave phosphodiester bond)
- Uracil is incorrectly paired with guanine then mutation will occur
- The original GC base pair will change into AT base pair(transition of GC to AT)
- Transition is a mutation in which one purine(adenine or guanine) is substituted for other or one pyrimidine(cytosine or thymine or uracil) is substituted for other
Based on the study of soapberry bugs and based on the conditions in which studies have been done, it can be concluded that the Soapberry bugs with shorter beaks had a selective advantage in Central Florida because they were better able to feed on Goldenrain fruits.
