Which of the following mutations will most likely not result in a change in phenotype of an individual? a. a point mutation which does not change the amino acid b. an inversion mutationc. a nonsense mutation which stops the production of a protein prematurely d. a missense mutation which results in valine being produced instead of glutamic acid ! xoxo

The answer is A. point mutation which does not change the amino acid. A point mutation is a mutation of gene in which a single nucleotide is changed from the sequence. In this case, the  amino acid was replaced by the same amino acid in which there will be no effect on the product of the sequence. This will not alter the replicated DNA, Product that will be produced will be essentially the same.
