HELP! (Will give brainliest answer!)

Suppose you are a doctor treating a patient with a point mutation in a protein-encoding gene.

The mutation is as follows:
Correct Gene: TACAAGCCTTATACT
Mutated Gene: TACAAGGCCTTATACT

Please answer the following questions…

A. What is the name of this type of mutation?
B. Is this a frameshift mutation? Why or why not?
C. What would be the polypeptide produced by the correct gene, and the polypeptide produced by the faulty gene?
D. Suppose this gene coded for a protein involved in assembly of the RNA polymerase enzyme. What symptoms would you expect your patient would exhibit?
E. Suppose this was a trait experienced in a specific family history. What type of diagram could you use to determine the presence of this trait throughout the family tree?

The empty trna moves off and picks up another matching amino acid from the cytoplasm in the cell. the anticodon of the trna, with its attached amino acid, pairs to the codon of the mrna, which is attached to a ribosome. this sequence is repeated until the ribosome reaches a stop codon on the mrna, which signals the end of protein synthesis. the ribosome forms a peptide bond between the amino acids, and an amino acid chain begins to form. when a second trna with its specific amino acid pairs to the next codon in sequence, the attached amino acid breaks from the first trna and is bonded to the amino acid of the second trna.
