Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The phenomenon is best explained by the fact that the <u>genetic codes are degenerates</u>. In other words, more than one codon can specify for the same amino acid being carried by the tRNA.

<em>The base-pairing rule between the third nucleotide of a codon and that of the anticodon on the tRNAs loosens off. For example, GUU, GUC, and GUA all specify for the amino acid valine while GCU, GCC, and GCA all specify for alanine. </em>

Claim and evidence:

It would happen that the effectiveness of an original vaccine could become less if there was a mutation in the virus that caused the protein spike to change because the antibodies created would not be specific for the new virus.

<h3>What would happen to the mutated virus?</h3>

Vaccines trigger an immune response to fight disease-causing organisms, a mutation in the virus to be fought would change the effectiveness of this immune response, as the specificity would not be the same with the mutant virus.

With this information, we can conclude that The immune response would not be specific for the new virus that caused the protein spike to change.
