Question

What kind of mutation occurred when the DNA strand changed from AATCGTCCG TO AATAGTCCG?

Answer 1

Missense Mutation

Step-by-step explanation:

AAT CGT CCG to AAT AGT CCG where CGT has become AGT is a point mutation. If a point mutation changes the amino acid, it’s called a missense mutation. In this case CGT (arginine) has become AGT (serine).
