Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following are types of mutations?
A
transfer
B
exon
C
frameshift
D
cross-over
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Insertions, deletions, and duplications can all be frameshift variants. Some regions of DNA contain short sequences of nucleotides that are repeated a number of times in a row.

Detailed explanation-2: -An insertion or deletion involving a number of base pairs that is not a multiple of three, which consequently disrupts the triplet reading frame of a DNA sequence.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mutations can be of many types, such as substitution, deletion, insertion, and translocation.

Detailed explanation-4: -Insertion mutations and deletion mutations are the two forms of frameshift mutations that might occur. Both have a similar overall impact, shifting the translational reading frame out of alignment and producing a random amino acid sequence.

Detailed explanation-5: -Types of Mutations There are three types of DNA Mutations: base substitutions, deletions and insertions.
