Crick et al found that not all combinations of (+) and (-) frameshift mutations results in suppression and an rII+ phenotype. Which of the following is a possible explanation of why some +/- combinations do not work. Select one: a. A stop codon is located between the (+) and (-) frameshift mutations. b. A necessary part of the protein is encoded by the region of the gene located between the (+) and (-) frameshift mutations. c. Not all combinations of (+) and (-) frameshift mutations puts the ribosome back into the original reading frame. d. Two of the above explanations are correct. e. All of the first three explanations are correct.

Respuesta :

Answer:

d. Two of the above explanations are correct.

Explanation:

A frameshift mutation is commonly known as a genetic mutation that occurs as a result of the indels such as the addition or removal of certain nucleotides in the sequence of a DNA that is indivisible by three. In the presence of addition or removal, the reading frame from the initial translation to a different one. Thus, the correct option is option d.
