Answer:B. Insertion

Explanation: Mutation can be defined as a permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of a DNA. There are basically three types of mutation: insertion, substitution or deletion. Insertion is a type of mutation in which one or more base pairs is added to a nucleotide sequence of a DNA. Substitution involves the replacement of one base pair with another in a nucleotide sequence of a DNA while deletion involves the total removal of one or more base pairs in a nucleotide sequence. A mutation can be silent if it affects non coding segments of a DNA or if it has negligible effect on the gene function, but most times mutations are deleterious.

DNA is a nucleic acid that consists of thousands of smaller, repeating units called nucleotides.
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Besides storing genetic information, nucleic acids helps in

Understanding diseases

Creation of proteins

Transmission of information

Explanation:

Understanding diseases

Knowledge about the nucleic acids and their mechanism of action helps in understanding the causes of a disease and the possible cure for the disease. A genetic disease is caused when there is a faulty gene, which is made up of nucleic acids, is present in the genome. These genes will make faulty RNA's which will result in the establishment of faulty proteins. Hence, by having understanding about nucleic acids, diseases can be studies and cured.

Creation of proteins

The information from the DNA is coded by the mRNA which is used to make proteins.

Transmission of information

Apart from storing information, the nucleic acids such as the DNA are also involved in the transmission of information.
