When DNA replication occurs before meiosis, the original DNA strand
GTC ACA GGC ATC is copied into complementary strand CAG CCG TAG.
What type of mutation has occurred?
A) deletion
B) insertion
o
inversion
D) translocation
In this particular insertion there is an insert of three bases. Complementary strands in DNA are the opposite strand, so Adenine is coupled to Thymine and Guanine is coupled to Cytosine.
