6. A gene has a base sequence that begins with TAA CTA TGA CGT CG. Answer the following questions using the codon table from question #5.

a) What RNA sequence would be produced during transcription? Hint: In RNA, A pairs with U. (1 point)

b) What are the first four amino acids coded by this sequence? Hint: Look up the amino acids on the codon table. (1 point)

c) The gene has a frameshift mutation, where the fifth base in the sequence is deleted. Write the new DNA base sequence. Hint: Rewrite the sequence without the fifth base. (1 point)

d) What is the new RNA sequence? Hint: In RNA, A pairs with U. (1 point)

e) What are the first three amino acids coded by this new mutated sequence? Hint: Use the codon table. (1 point)

f) How does the correct amino acid sequence compare to the mutated sequence? (1 point)
