Answer:

this mutation may change the open reading frame of the resulting RNA sequence and its final product, which is a protein in the case that this gene is used to synthesize a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence

Explanation:

During the transcription, a region of DNA named 'gene' is used as template to produce an RNA molecule, typically a primary transcript of mRNA (pre-mRNA). Subsequently, this pre-mRNA suffers a process named RNA processing in order to generate a mature mRNA which is finally used to create a protein by a process called translation. If a deletion occurs during transcription, it may change the open reading frame (ORF) of the resulting mRNA when the mutation occurs in an exon of the protein-coding gene (i.e., occurs a frameshift mutation), while this deletion may not have any effect if it is localized within the introns which are removed during RNA processing. A frameshift mutation will change the amino acids that are added to the nascent polypeptide chain during translation.

A gene with the sequence ATTCATTCA underwent duplication after a few generations. Which sequence represents this gene after the
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The sequence would be <u>ATTCATTCA</u>.

Explanation:

Usually, when a sequence is duplicated, one of them becomes a non-coding. It's just like a computer. There can only be one specific file, or else a duplicated one will just replace the existing one, if you allow the file to do so. Same with DNA. This is why most of our DNA have no function and why we lost genetic abilities such as being able to produce our own Vitamin C.

So instead of the new gene being ATTCATTCAATTCATTCA, it's simply ATTCATTCA. You simply cannot have duplicates, just like computer files. I wish I could share an amazing video by PBS Eons giving a great explanation about genes and stuff, but sadly Brainly doesn't like such stuff, so just <em>search up in ㄚㄖㄩㄒㄩ乃乇 (ebuTouY) "genes we lost along the way" and it should be the first video that pops out.</em> Trust me, it's a great video, it's much better than my explanation.
