Which of the following mutations would most likely be identified as a chromosomal translocation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A mutation occurs while copying a chromosome. Instead of reading EFGHI, the chromosome reads EFGFGHI. The genetic sequence is MNOPQ. A mutation occurs and the sequence of bases that encodes for gene N is not copied. The sequence of bases on the mRNA reads CUU and codes for the amino acid Leucine. A mutation occurs and the mRNA sequence changes to CCU and now codes for the amino acid Proline. A sequence of bases encodes for genes XXY. A portion of another chromosome breaks off and inserts within genes XYZ.

are u asking if this is right?:p ^^^

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

oh nvm i see sorry

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

alrighty so my bestest answer would be A mutation occurs while copying a chromosome. Instead of reading EFGHI, the chromosome reads EFGFGHI.

@BIOCRYSTAL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the last one is the result of chromosomal translocation

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

???????

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

hmm i see what u mean @BIOCRYSTAL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so guys wich one is the correct lol? @superhelp101 @BIOCRYSTAL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first one is gene duplication the next is deletion the third is single nucleotide polymorphism and the last is chromosomal translocation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

isn't it @superhelp101

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you re right the last one is the correct

OpenStudy (superhelp101):

that is what i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah the last one is the answer..@laurisve you must read about all those four mechanisms mentioned above
