Suppose that a gene has a mutation that changes one nucleotide. Compared to the protein produced from the non-mutated gene, this new protein contains a stop codon where an amino acid was previously found in the original version. This type of mutation would be classified as a O frameshift mutation. O degenerate mutation. O silent mutation. O missense mutation. O nonsense mutation.

Mitochondrial Mutations

A mitochondrion is a cellular organelle that serves as the site for cellular respiration and energy production (ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate). It is a double-membrane-bound organelle and is only present in eukaryotic cells.
