Base substitutions in a gene exon might not result in a change in the gene product because _________________________________.   more than one codon may specify the same amino acid mutations in exons do not affect the final protein sequence of amino acids single base substitutions cannot alter the amino acid sequence of a protein exon most of the DNA is non-coding they are reversed during intron-splicing
