Rank the following one-base point mutations (from most likely to least likely) with respect to their likelihood of affecting the structure of the corresponding polypeptide: 1. insertion mutation deep within an intron 2. substitution mutation at the third position of an exonic codon 3. substitution mutation at the second position of an exonic codon 4. deletion mutation within the first exon of the gene a) 1, 2, 3, 4 b) 4, 3, 2, 1 c) 2, 1, 4, 3 d) 3, 1, 4, 2 e) 2, 3, 1, 4

The Order is:

B) 4, 3, 2, 1

4. deletion mutation within the first exon of the gene

3. substitution mutation at the second position of an exonic codon

2. substitution mutation at the third position of an exonic codon

1. insertion mutation deep within an intron

Polypeptide is another name for protein. Polypeptides are composed of amino acids that are connected to each other by peptide bonds forming themselves like chains.

Protein is a substance that is very important for the life of living things. The word protein comes from the Greek protos or proteos which means first or foremost.

Humans obtain protein from plants and animals because they cannot form proteins. Protein obtained or derived from animals is called animal protein, while protein obtained from plants is called vegetable protein. Some foods that contain protein include milk, fish, eggs, and meat.

The protein consumed by humans and animals will be used to:
