Answer:

All frameshift mutations are equal

Explanation:

Frameshift mutation is a type of mutation caused by insertion or deletion of nucleotide base(s) in a genetic sequence causing that sequence to be read in a different way from what was originally planned.

The bases in the sequence of a gene is read in three's (codon), however, when one or more bases is added (insertion) or removed (deleted), the reading frame is altered causing the sequence to be read in a completely different order that can result in a protein that is non-functional.

However, FRAMESHIFT MUTATION is so potent that it affects the sequence no matter where it occurs. In other words, the effect of all frameshift mutations are equal.
