The table shows a DNA sequence and three types of mutations that can change the DNA sequence.

Question

The table has four columns and two rows. From left to right the column headings reed, original, mutation 1, mutation 2, mutation three. From top to bottom the row headings reed, DNA codon, mRNA codon. The chart below the table is titled, mRNA codon chart. The chart has four columns and four rows. The row headings on the left are titled, first position. From top to bottom the row headings reed, u, c, A. , gee. The column headings are titled, second position. From left to right the column headings reed, U, c, A. , gee. Each column has two sub columns. From left to right the sub column headings reed, Code, amino acid. Code, amino acid. Code, amino acid. Code, amino acid. The row headings on the right are titled, third position. From top to bottom the row headings reed, U, c, A. , gee. U, c, A. , gee. U, c, A. , gee. U, c, A. , gee.
Which mutation will cause translation to stop?

(B.6E)

Question 20 options:

Mutations 1 and 3 only

Mutation 1 only

Mutation 2 only

Mutations 1, 2, and 3

Answer 1

The table and chart provided do not include enough information to determine which mutation will cause translation to stop. More information, such as the specific codons affected by each mutation and their corresponding amino acids, is needed to make this determination.
