You suspect a protein that is being expressed has been affected by a mutation.  When you examine the fully functional protein you find curiously that it still has retained all of its overall function.  A friend of yours doing research with you assures you when examining the genetic data a new mutation does in fact exist in this protein.  What is the most likely type of mutation that occurred based on this information?  Group of answer choices frameshift mutation silent mutation 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.
