Question

Below is a DNA strand.  We will call this the original strand, and you will transcribe and translate it first.  Each question thereafter is a variation of the original strand with a mutation.  Transcribe and translate the DNA strand for each number, and identify the type of mutation.  It is important to determine where the change in DNA occurred in each mutated strand to help you identify the mutation type.
