What type of mutation is shown in the sequence below

Biology
1 answer:
almond37 [142]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Single nucleotide deletion

Explanation:

Original DNA sequence:

A T A C G G T A

T A T G C C A T

Mutated DNA sequence:

A T C G G T A G

T A G C C A T C

​In the mutated sequence, there is a nucleotide missing. It goes from ATACGGTA to ATCGGTAG. The A nucleotide is gone. This represents a single base pair deletion.

Even though it is only one base, this changes the way the entire sequence is interpreted. The DNA transcribed into an mRNA and then translated into a protein by reading triplet codons which correspond to specific amino acids.

So while the initial sequence would be read as:

ATA, CGG, TA...

The new sequence would be read as:

ATC, GGT, AG...

So the sequence of the protein is completely altered.

There are two ways you could look at this. If we got rid of all viruses, then less people would die. This is obviously a good thing as so many families are devastated by virus related deaths every year. However, all these extra people could lead to surplus population which, as history has shown, leads to drought, famine, and the eventual down fall of the empire/nation/etc
