Answer and Explanation:

This would cause defective proteins to be created in the body that would not form the fish membrane correctly and promote problems with the control and functioning of that membrane. This could harm the organism in many activities, limit its life expectancy, cause discomfort and cause a strain that presents the same problem, since these flaws can be inherited genetically.

A mutated DNA sequence is a DNA molecule that has nucleotides in the wrong order, which causes a mutation and does not allow the correct formation of proteins.
