A mutation causing an addition or a deletion of one base pair resulted in the production of a nonfunctional mutant protein. The

sequences of the normal and mutant proteins are given below. Normal: Met - Leu - Ala - Thr - Gln Mutant: Met - Leu - Ala - His - Pro - Ile - Glu - Ser - Thr - ..... Was this mutation cause by an insertion or a deletion? Answer Below, fill in the codons in the coding sequence of the mRNA that is translated into the mutant protein.

Answer:

<h2>Caused by insertion  of codons;</h2><h2>Codons:  as 5' AUG UUG GCU CAC CCA AUA 3'</h2>

Explanation:

1. This mutation is the type of addition mutation ,in which extra codons are inserted in the codon sequence, which codes for amino acids, finally protein will contain extra amino acids.

2. In this case, there is the insertion of these codons which codes for amino acids named as:

AUA (Ile/I) Isoleucine,

CCA (Pro/P) Proline;

CAC (His/H) Histidine;

GCU (Ala/A)Alanine;

UUG (Leu/L) Leucine;

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. clavicle articulates with the manubrium of the sternum.

Explanation:

The clavicle is an anterior bone whose sternal end articulates with the manubrium of the sternum at the sternoclavicular joint. The sternal end is also anchored to the first rib by the costoclavicular ligament. The medial end, also known as the sternal end of the clavicle, has a triangular shape and articulates with the manubrium portion of the sternum. This forms the sternoclavicular joint, which is the only bony articulation between the pectoral girdle of the upper limb and the axial skeleton.
