Question

Question 19 2 pts A mutation that results in the codon UAG where there had been UGG is a nonsense mutation. a missense mutation. a frame-shift mutation. a large-scale mutation. Question 20 2 pts Which statement is not true about point mutation? Point mutation leads to less severe consequence. Point mutation may result in no changes to gene function. Point mutation is changes to single bases DNA sequence.
