Read the question and type out the
mRNA codon that would result. (make
sure to capitalize)

Threonine or Thr.

Explanation:

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a molecule containing genetic information that is passed on from one generation to the next. This molecule is transcribed into another molecule called messenger ribonucleic acid or messenger RNA which is used for protein synthesis in the ribosomes. That is, the one that determines the order in which the amino acids of a protein will be joined. Both RNA and DNA have monomers called nucleotides, composed of a sugar molecule (ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) linked to a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous bases can be adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and uracil (U) in RNA replacing T.

A codon is a sequence of three nucleotides found in RNA that codes an amino acid. The genetic code describes the relationship between the sequence of DNA bases in a gene and the corresponding sequence of the protein it encodes. Also note that there is base complementarity between DNA and RNA, that is why DNA is used to make RNA. Complementarity is the ability of the nitrogenous bases in the nucleic acid molecule to combine with their complement, Adenine (A) with Thymine (T) in DNA and A with U in RNA; and Cytosine (C) with Guanine (G) joined by hydrogen bridges.

In the figure, a RNA molecule is shown with the bases, showing which amino acid is code by each codon. In the case where there is a mutation and the G is replaced by an A in the codon coding for alanine, the codon would be ACA coding for threonine or Thr.

i believe it would cause an increase of percipitation, though i could be wrong. so i would say b is the answer.
