What type of mutation is a point mutation?
A point mutation is when 1 base pair is swapped out for another one... so instead of an A you might find a C... or T... or G. Also an insertion or deletion of a base pair A mutation of a single point :)
Which type of mutation causes the most change to the protein produced?
A silent mutation
A base-pair substitution is the replacement of one base-pair with another base-pair is what type of mutation?

What is the difference between a point mutation and an insertion and deletion?
Because a point mutation is the replacement of a single base with another base. Thus, if the replacement base codes for the same type amino acid, such as a hydrophobic type amino acid replacing a hydrophobic amino acid, no change to the protein coded for will occur. If a deletion mutation occurs then the code for the protein is disrupted and the protein product is probably going to be useless to the body and may even cause a disease.
What type of mutation is caused by adding one nucleotide into the middle of a sequence?
frameshift mutation
Which type of mutation occurs when one base replaces another base in a DNA condon?
Substitution.
What type of mutation causes protein to be synthesized with one incorrect amino acid?
Missense

A silent mutation
What type of point mutation is dwarfism?
One type of dwarfism that is a point mutation is achondroplasia.

What type of mutation result when bases are added to gene?
Frame shift mutation occurs when a new codon in inserted. Point mutations occurs when one base, sometimes two, are inserted.
Mutation that occurs when a single base is added or deleted from DNA causes a shift in the reading of codons by one base?
Frameshift Mutation
Mutations that occur at one single nitrogen base are referred to as?
Mutations that occur at one single nitrogen base are referred to as a point mutation.
Name two major types of mutations?
Frameshift mutations and Point mutations. The difference between the two are that point mutations occur at a single point in the DNA sequence and frameshift mutations shift the "reading frame" of the genetic message.
A mutation involving a chain in the base sequence of DNA?
You might be referring to point mutation. This is when one nucleotide in a gene is changed and causes many irregularities in the cell.
