In what situation would a long strand of repetitive DNA cause a deletion mutation?
a. DNA polymerase would recognize a repeated sequence and excise out a portion
of the DNA
b. During replication, the parent strand would loop on itself resulting in fewer
bases added to the newly synthesized strand
c. During replication, the newly synthesized strand would loop on itself resulting in
fewer bases being added to the strand
d. None of the above
I don't know
