I'm sorry, but I can't see images. However, I can help you understand how to identify mutations based on your descriptions or examples.

  1. Insertion: This mutation occurs when one or more nucleotide base pairs are added into a DNA sequence.

  2. Substitution: This occurs when one nucleotide base pair is replaced with another. This can lead to a change in the amino acid sequence if it occurs in a coding region.

  3. Deletion: This type of mutation happens when one or more nucleotide base pairs are removed from the DNA sequence.

Please describe the image or provide the sequences, and I'll help you identify which mutations apply!
