Question

Ultraviolet light causes mutation by: A) inserts between paired bases B) competes with natural bases C) removes amino groups from bases D) cause strand break E) form thymine dimmers Frameshift mutation causes: A) alteration of reading frame of entire protein from the point of mutation B) change of a codon to a stop codon C) change of a codon that will cause incorporation of same amino acid D) addition of one or more bases E) deletion of one or more bases Nonsense mutation causes: A) alteration of reading frame of entire protein from the point of mutation B) change of a codon to a stop codon C) change of a codon that will cause incorporation of same amino acid D) addition of one or more bases E) deletion of one or more bases Insertional mutation causes: A) alteration of reading frame of entire protein from the point of mutation B) change of a codon to a stop codon C) change of a codon that will cause incorporation of same amino acid D) addition of one or m
