Question

Mutation cause a protein to be synthesized with one incorrect amino acid?

Answer 1

A mutation that causes incorporation of an incorrect amino acid in a synthesizing protein is known as missense mutation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the protein that this amino acid would be carrying.

Answer 2

The correct answer will be- Missense mutation

Step-by-step explanation:

A missense mutation is a type of mutation which takes place due to the change in the single base pair nucleotide caused by the substitution of a different nucleotide.

The change in the single nucleotide leads to change in the codon read during the translation. This change in the codon causes the substitution of a different amino acid which could result in a different protein.

Thus, missense mutation is the correct answer.
