If you are looking for the term of this mutation, then the answer is 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 :)
A Missense Mutation.It is a point mutation where the mutations alters the base sequence without changing the resulting function of the subsequent protein. This is usually when the mutation does not change the amino acid which the codon codes for.
It is possible for a point mutation to not change the sequence of amino acids in a protein. This will result in the protein being unchanged and will not affect the phenotype.
Yes, a mutation can occur without affecting the phenotype at all. For example, a point mutation may change a nucleotide in a codon, but sometimes, the codon can still code the same amino acid, so the mRNA strand can still make the same protein.
mutation in the DNA will cause the amino acids to code for a different protein, creating a new structure, therefore altering the phenotype.
Insertion mutations can affect many amino acids in the protein.An insertion mutation usually causes more defects during protein synthesis than point mutation because an insertion mutation will affect many amino acids in the protein.
Insertion mutations can affect many amino acids in the protein.An insertion mutation usually causes more defects during protein synthesis than point mutation because an insertion mutation will affect many amino acids in the protein.
A point mutation, in which one nitrogen base in a codon is substituted for another, may have no effect on an organism. This is true if the base substitution does not change the amino acid that the codon represents, or if the mutation occurs in a non-critical location in the protein so that the protein's structure is not changed significantly and the protein is still able to function.

Point Mutation- a type of gene mutation in which only a single nucleotide in a gene has been changed.
A point mutation can affect the protein in a different ways. If the point change causes a silent mutation then it doesnt affect at all. When the point nucleotide change make a different amino acid, then it may alters the function of protein. If it make to forma a stop codon (TAA, TAG, TGA) then the protein synthesis stops at the point where it is changed.
