A frame-shift mutation has the potential to change the

Question

a
types of sugars in DNA and shift these sugars to the right.
b
sequence of nitrogen bases in a strand of messenger RNA, and the protein made
c
order of hydrogen bonds in DNA before the shift.
d
chemistry of phosphate groups in a strand of messenger RNA.

Answer 1

A frame-shift mutation has the potential to change the

b sequence of nitrogen bases in a strand of messenger RNA, and the protein made.

Frame-shift mutations occur when nucleotides are inserted or deleted from the DNA sequence, causing a shift in how the sequence is read in codons. This can lead to changes in the resulting mRNA and consequently alter the amino acid sequence of the protein being synthesized.
