Vedclass · Answer

(B) frame-shift mutation occurs due to the insertion or deletion of one or more nucleotides in a $DNA$ sequence,which alters the reading frame of the genetic code.Original sequence: $AAG, GAG, GAC, CAA, CCA$ ($15$ bases).In option $B$: $AAG, AGG, ACC, AAC, CAA$,the reading frame has shifted significantly compared to the original sequence,indicating an insertion or deletion event occurred. Options $C$ and $D$ represent point mutations (substitutions),where only a single base is changed without altering the entire reading frame downstream. Therefore,option $B$ is the correct representation of a frame-shift mutation.
