Which of the following is a point mutation that does not produce a frame shift?

A point mutation that does not produce a frame shift is when one single base is replaced by a different base. This changes the DNA sequence, but does not cause a frame shift because it is a switch not an addition or subtraction of a base.

What is never a frameshift mutation?
Substitution is not ever a frame shift mutation. However, insertion, point mutation, and deletion are all examples of a frame shift mutation.
Which mutation would not change the remainder of the reading frame of a gene sequence that follows the mutation?
The answer is easy.
Was the sequence a result of point or frame shift mutation?
No
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.
Chemical q causes the following change in the sequences of nucleotides?
Point mutation.
Would a point mutation or a frame shift mutation more likely produce a neutral mutation?
A point shift mutation is more likely to produce a neutral reaction. This is because it involves a change in one nucleotide. A frame shift mutation is more deleterious because it involves the insertion or deletion of multiple base pairs within a gene's coding sequence.
Why is point mutation dangerous?
A frame shift mutation destroys the correct sequence of amino acids from the point of the mutation. The protein produced by a frame shift mutation would more than likely be nonfunctional.

How point mutation frame shift mutation and meiosis contribute to genetic variation?
Nicely. Do your project on your own!
How are point mutations and frame shift mutations different?
Point Mutations always result in [causing] a frame-shift mutation so they are the same.

What type of mutation results in a gene change in the body's reproductive cells?
Generally, a germ line mutation or sex cell mutation. Could be anything from a point mutation, one amino acid difference, to a whole frame shift mutation.
Chemical q causes the following change in the sequences of nucleotides?
Point mutation.
A mutation in which a single base is added to or deleted from DNA is called what?
translocation .. this is wrong.its a point mutation :)
A change in a single nucleotide in DNA-?
A mutation
