Question
what kind(s) of mutation(s) cause a frameshift? select all that apply insertion deletion substitution
Brief Explanations
Frameshift mutations occur when nucleotides are inserted or deleted (not in multiples of three), altering the reading frame. Substitution mutations replace one nucleotide with another and do not cause a frameshift as they do not shift the reading frame (unless multiple substitutions in a non - three - nucleotide - multiple way, but generally substitution is not a frameshift cause).
