Aportion of a wild type (normal) mrna sequence reads gug acu uuu ccu ccc aua uga. a mutation occurred in the dna coding for the 4th codon from the left, and the mrna sequence now reads gug acu uuu acu ccc aua uga. what type of mutation has occurred?

The correct answer is Substitution point mutation.

Mutation is the permanent change in the genetic material of the organism. Point mutation means there is change in one nucleotide sequence and substitution mutation means replacement of one or more bases by the same number.

As per the question, mutation has occurred in the DNA coding for the fourth codon ( which is ccu in the mRNA sequence).

The fourth codon is changed from ccu to acu. This indicates that there is change in one nucleotide that is from c ( cytosine) to a ( adenine) and also it is a substitution mutation as cytosine is replaced by adenine.

but there is no

i guess you forgot putting it.

a scenario where a cell may be needed to perform a form of endocytosis is when transporting large molecules. a scenario where a cell may be needed to perform a form of exocytosis is when releasing the large molecule from the cell.
