26. A single nucleotide deletion occurred in a gene. The change is indicated below. What is the consequence of the mutation?
(A) The mutation occurs in the third position of a codon which results in a silent mutation due to the Wobble effect.
(B) It results in premature termination of translation so a truncated polypeptide will be produced.
(C) A longer polypeptide will be made but the protein might still be functional.
(D) It leads to frameshift so the downstream amino acid sequence will alter and the protein is unlikely to be functional.
(E) It changes the single amino acid, which may or may not cause a problem.
