What would be the result of a substitution of TA for the CG at position 9?

**DNA Sequence Representation** **Position Numbers:** 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 **DNA Sequence:** **5' - Strand:** -GGGGA GAA CGA G AC A AT C TG C TC G- 3’ **3' - Strand (Complementary):** -CCCCT CTT GCT C TG T TA G AC G AG C- 5’ **Explanation:** The image shows a segment of a DNA double helix with its nucleotide sequence. The numbers above the sequences indicate the position of the nucleotides along the strand. Each strand has a sequence of nucleotides designated by the letters A (adenine), T (thymine), C (cytosine), and G (guanine). - The top line indicates the 5' to 3' direction of one strand. - The bottom line indicates the 3' to 5' direction of the complementary strand. This representation helps illustrate the base-pairing characteristic of the DNA structure, where A pairs with T, and C pairs with G.
