The Central Dogma states that genetic information flows in one direction. It is the process of copying a DNA sequence to make RNA which is being decoded to make the protein. Process of DNA to RNA to Protein
Answer:
c) It introduces a premature stop codon into the mRNA
Explanation:
Nonsense mutation is a type of point mutation (single nucleotide base is changed) which leads to premature stop codon. Stop codons are also called nonsense codons and that is way this type of mutation is called nonsense mutation. As a consequence, synthesized protein is incomplete and shorter than it should be (truncated protein), usually nonfunctional.

Some helpful tips:
The nucleus is always going to be the big, spherical shape.
The ER is always going to be a weird, folded looking structure attached to the nucleus (rough = has ribosomes on it which are usually represented by little dots, smooth = has no ribosomes on it aka no dots)
The GA looks like the ER but it is not going to be attached to the nucleus like the ER is.
The mitochondria is always going to be pill-shaped and have weird folds inside of it.
Skeletal mass increases dramatically during childhood and adolescence, and decreases dramatically at the beginning of the fourth decade of life and decreases with age, with an exception of the skull.
Hope this helps! Have a BLESSED day! :-)
