A. Yes, because an amino acid change has occurred.
B Yes because all mutations change the resulting protein

Respuesta :

Answer:

A. Yes, because an amino acid change has occurred.

Explanation:

The sequence given states that the codon CCG is changed to CAG. According to the codon table (attached), CCG codes for proline whereas CAG codes for Glutamine. Therefore, change in mutation has resulted into the change in amino acid. This would lead to the formation of a different protein.
