Answer:
Insertion
Explanation:
Insertion mutation is a kind of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base(s) is added to the sequence, hence, changing the reading frame of the sequence. In this question, the following original and mutated sequence were given:
Original DNA Sequence: T ACACC GGCGAC GAC T
Mutated DNA Sequence: T ACAC CTTA GC GAC GAC T
As one can observe while comparing the two sequences, there has been an addition of 'TTA' making the sequence longer and changing the reading frame. This is an example of INSERTION MUTATION.
