Examine the two strands of DNA below. Which kind of mutation occurred?
Original strand: AGC GTA CCC TAC
New strand: AGC GTA ACC TAC

O deletion
O insertion
O frameshift
O substitution

You can tell that this is a substitution mutations because the DNA sequence only changed at that nucleotide. Frameshift, Deletion, and Insertion mutations have a significantly more noticable effect on the sequence.

Fun Fact: Substitution mutations are also called point mutations (that is what I learned them as)

Hope this helped! :^)
