genetic Mutations
Match each example to a type of mutation. Match each type of mutation with the example given for it. Substitution ACA GTT --> ACT GTT Deletion ACA GTT --> ACG TT Insertion ACA GTT --> ACA GAT T Fill in the blanks with the term(s) that makes the statement correct. 1. A gene mutation is a change in one or more bases in DNA.2. Mutations are caused by mutagens like UV light or chemicals A deletionmutation is when a nucleotide base is lost.4. An insertion mutation is when an extra nucleotide base is inserted.5. A substitution mutation occurs when one nucleotide base is substituted for another. If the original DNA is ATAACGCCTATT... then the number of codons is 3 4 11 12 Using the following DNA sequence, determine the type of mutation that has occurred with the new sequence. T A C A C C T T G G C G A C G A C T New Sequence Type of mutation T A C A T C T T G G C G A C G A C T Substitution T A C G A C C T T G G C G A C G A C T Insertion T A C A C C T T G G G A C G A C T Deletion Consider a portion of a DNA strand with the following sequence of bases: CATATGGTCTGTSuppose the bases were not transcribed correctly and the resulting mRNA read: GUAUCACACAWhat type of gene mutation does the represent? Does it change the assembly of the polypeptide? (You need to consult a codon chart on Google Classroom)
