Question

As a result of _______________, the incorrect sequence of amino acids will be translated into a protein, resulting in a mutation.

A)

deletion

B)

insertion

C)

inversion

D)

crossing over

Answer 1

As a result of deletion, the incorrect sequence of amino acids will be translated into a protein, resulting in a mutation.

A) deletion

Answer 2

The correct answer is option C, Inversion

Step-by-step explanation:

In case of inversion, the frame shift of genetic pattern occur and thus though the pattern is incorrect the mutated gene is replicated in crossing (because the codon set is not incomplete here, it is just disturbed from the normal pattern) but in case of insertion and deletion, the three base pair that forms the codon (which are extremely necessary for the replication) get disturb and thus encoding of available genetic material stops at the moment where the triplet pair is disturbed.
