Solution
b. The mutation causes a premature stop codon causing a short protein to form.

In a "silent" mutation, theMultiple Choicecodon that mutates causes a change in the amino acid specified.codon that mutates does not cause a change in the amino acid specified.codon that mutates causes a stop codon to occur instead of the placement of an amino acid.mutation does not occur in a codon.mutation is not in DNA.

A mutation in a base in DNA that does not result in an amino acid change in the protein is called a__________ mutation. A) silent B) deletion
A missense mutation in the nucleotide sequence of a gene definitely has the effect of: A) The substitution of an amino acid in the protein encoded by the gene B) The production of a protein longer than normal C) The production of a protein shorter than normal D) The death of the cell in which the mutation occurred E) The failure to produce the protein encoded by the gene
A mutation arises so that the nucleotide sequence of a protein encoding gene changes from: 5'....GAUAUGUUACUAAAC....3' to 5'....GAUAUGUUACGAAAC....3', what happens to the resulting protein sequence?Group of answer choicesThe protein is prematurely truncated (shortened).A single amino acid is changed.Many residues in the protein sequence are changed.The protein sequence does not change.No protein is generated.
