acids long.... Full question under? Suppose the normal protein for a gene has exactly 100 amino acids. A mutated version of this gene produces a protein only 20 amino acids long. Furthermore, the sequence of amino acids is the same for the first six amino acids, but completely different from that point on. What kind of mutation could cause this?
A. An insertion mutation occurred in the seventh codon.
B. This type of mutation is impossible.
C. A silent mutation occurs in the seventh codon.
D. a base substitution in the twenty-first codon that changes it to a stop codon.
E. The start codon is missing.
Thank You for your Help
