In a human germ cell, a replication slippage event occurs during the round of DNA replication just before meiosis. The slippage event occurred within the DNA sequence that encodes for the first exon of the KRT1 gene. The KRT1 gene encodes for the protein keratin which is found highly expressed in skin cells. The slippage event described has the potential to result in what type of mutation?
A. a somatic missense mutation
B. a somatic frameshift mutation
C. a somatic silent mutation
D. a germline missense mutation
E. a germline frameshift mutation
F. a germline silent mutation
