The answer is; deletion mutation
This type of mutation mostly causes a phenomenon called frameshift mutation whereby the 3-codon sequence reading frame is shifted causing the amino acids translated, downstream of the deletion site, to be altered. This can gravely affect the function of the translated proteins and result in genetic disease.
Answer:
The correct answer will be
1. Lengthen
2. Lengthen, shortens
3. Disassemble
Explanation:
There are three types of microtubules present during cell division: kinetochore, aster and polar microtubules.
1. During prophase: all types of microtubules grow out at their positive(+) ends which functions to pull and push the sister chromatids apart towards opposite poles so they lengthen.
2. During anaphase : non-kinetochore microtubules- polar microtubules polymerization takes place at their (+) ends which causes the spindle fibres to move apart while kinetochore microtubules which have been attached to the kinetochores of chromosomes shorten at their (+) ends and motor proteins travel to (-) end because of which sister chromatids move towards the spindle poles.
3. During telophase: non-kinetochore microtubules depolymerize or disassembles.
Thus, 1. Lengthen, 2. Lengthen, shortens and 3. Disassemble are the correct options.
