What is the ribosome?
A DNA sequence reads ATA. After a mutation it reads ATT. What kind of mutation is this?
What is a nonsense mutation?
(It forms a stop codon)

What is Thymine (T)?
A DNA sequence reads CAT.
After a mutation, it reads CAG.
What kind of point mutation is this?

What are Amino Acids?
An original DNA sequence reads CATTAC.
After a mutation it reads CATAC.
Is this a point or a frameshift mutation?
What is a frameshift mutation?
