A DNA triplet has the sequence 3′-ATC-5′. After a single base mutation, the DNA triplet produces an mRNA codon that specifies the amino acid tryptophan (Trp). What mutation did the DNA triplet undergo?

Point mutation (transition)

Explanation:

mRNA has uracil instead of thymine:

3′-ATC-5′ is transcribed as UAG.

Now, since Tryptothan, an amino acid is coded by the triplet codon UGG. The single base mutation made the second nitrogenous base Adenine to become Guanine - this kind is called point mutation where a purine base substitute another purine base is called transition (a type of point mutation)

bacteria could be both, harmful and to us. harmful bacteria could make us sick and probably even by getting the chances of getting a disease, but good bacteria fight it off with your immune system. there is always bacteria everywhere we go. we need to make sure to wash our hands after using the restroom, before eating, after eating, after petting an animal too. so you see, bacteria is everywhere and is harmful or . i hope this . : ) : ) : )
