Original DNA: TAC CGA CCC Mutated DNA: TAC GCT CCC What type of mutation is being displayed above? A. Frameshift Insertion B. Frameshift Deletion C. Point Substitution

darkknight:

Hmm, so you said B yet you said a substitution?

darkknight:

You mean C right?

montes67:

omg yes, so sorry

darkknight:

You're good.

montes67:

I think it would be C. A Point substitution because it substituted C with G, then G with C If it were to be a deletion it would have deleted it entirely, and if it were to be an insertion it would have added something new. (Again very sorry)
