The type of mutation that alters the nucleotide sequence of a gene but does not alter the amino acid sequence of the protein produced from that gene is called mutation. The type of mutation that alters the nucleotide sequence of a gene but does not alter the amino acid sequence of the protein produced from that gene is called mutation. missense frameshift nonsense silent

silent mutation is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Silent mutation does not change in the amino acids because of this function of protein remain unchanged and protein is functional.A silent mutation is a kind of point mutation that changes the single nucleotide sequences.It is called a silent mutation is called silent because this kind of mutation does cause any change in the protein which is formed.sickle cell anemia, phenylketonuria, fibrosis, Tay-Sachs disease are the diseases caused by silent mutations.
