"I believe there is insertion and deletion, (one kind), and substitutions. (the second kind)"
This answer is incorrect, the two types of frameshift mutation are insertion and deletion, these both alter the translation reading frame. A substitution point mutation in DNA is referred to as a single-nucleotide polymorphism and does not result in any change to the translational reading frame.
insections and deletions are two types of frameshift mutations
What else can I help you with?
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.
List two types of gene mutations?
Two types of gene mutations are chromosomal and point mutation. Chromosomal mutation alters a cell's chromosomes, while point mutation replaces single-base pair nucleotides with other nucleotides found in RNA or DNA.
What are 3 types of mutation?
The three types of mutations are substitution (where one base is replaced with another), insertion (where an extra base is added), and deletion (where a base is removed). These mutations can alter the DNA sequence and potentially change the resulting protein.
What are 2 types of mutaions?
Two types of mutations are point mutations, which involve changes to a single nucleotide in the DNA sequence, and chromosomal mutations, which involve changes to larger segments of DNA such as deletions, duplications, inversions, or translocations.

What two types of chromosomal mutations?
Two are insertion mutations and deletion mutations.

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.
What are the two types of mutations in gamete cells?
The two types of mutations in gamete cells are germ-line mutations, which occur in the sperm or egg cells and can be passed down to offspring, and somatic mutations, which take place in other body cells and are not passed on to offspring.
What are 2 types of mutaions?
Two types of mutations are point mutations, which involve changes to a single nucleotide in the DNA sequence, and chromosomal mutations, which involve changes to larger segments of DNA such as deletions, duplications, inversions, or translocations.
What type of mutation results when bases are added to the gene?
This is called an insertion mutation.Some repeats, such as the repeats in the Huntington's gene, can be repeated too many times and then you have the deleterious mutation in this gene.
What are two types of transmissions?
Automatic and standard shift.
Two causes of mutation?
Two types of mutations are Point Mutations and the other is Frameshift Mutations. Piont mutations include; deletions, insertions, and substitutions. These mutations casue a slight change in the amino acid usually resulting in a change in one amino acid. The second type, frameshift mutations involve many changes and almost always results in many changes in the codons.
Is it true that only mutations in gametes can be passed from parent to offspring?
Gametic mutations occur in the cells of the gonads (which produce sperm and eggs) and may be inherited. There are two types of mutations that can occur in gamete cells: 1. Gene Mutations 2. Chromosomal Mutations
