300
A nucleotide is made of a ribose sugar, a phosphate, and a uracil.  Is it a DNA nucleotide or an RNA nucleotide?

RNA

300
What are codons and what is it made of? Be specific.
Codons are three bases made up of (A, G, C, and/or U)
400

What are the three components of a DNA nucleotide? - be specific 

Phosphate group, sugar, and base (A, T, C, or G)

400

Orginal sequence:  AUG CCG UUU

Mutated Sequence: AUG CCG UGA 


What kind of mutation?

UGA codes for a stop codon therefore it is a nonsense mutation
400
A change in DNA sequence (like a dropped nucleotide)
