Which of the following is an example of a frameshift mutation?
a deletion of a codon
missense mutation
silent mutation
deletion of one nucleotide

-deletion of one nucleotide

Explanation:

Frameshift mutations can be defined as mutations that lead to change the reading frame due to change in codon sequence of a gene. These mutations can be caused by addition or deletion of one or more (but not 3 or divisible by three) nucleotides from a gene.

As codons are made up of three nucleotides, due to deletion or addition codon sequence gets changed and makes a completely different gene product.

Thus, the correct answer is 'last option.'

because the asteroid belt is between the mars and jupiter orbits, it is around 2.2 to 3.2 astronomical units (au) from the sun – which is approximately 329,115,316 to 478,713,186 km. the average distance between objects is a massive 600,000 miles.
