of the specific mutations described, indicate which of
the terms in the right-hand column applies, either as a
description of the mutation or as a possible cause.
More than one term from the right column can apply
to each statement in the left column.
1. an A–T base pair in the wild-type gene is
changed to a G–C pair
2. an A–T base pair is changed to a T–A pair
3. the sequence AAGCTTATCG is changed to
AAGCTATCG
4. the sequence CAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAG
is changed to
CAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAG
5. the sequence AACGTTATCG is changed to
AATGTTATCG
6. the sequence AACGTCACACACACATCG
is changed to AACGTCACATCG
