Frame shift Correct Mutations that are induced by chemical #1 could be reversed by mutagens that can create the same type of mutations. If chemical #1 induced frameshift mutations by making small deletions or insertions, then acridine orange (which also induces frameshift mutations) could restore the proper reading frame with a second mutation. Since acridine orange is the only mutagen that reversed the mutations, then it is likely that chemical #1 induces frameshift mutations.

About the flashcard:

This flashcard is meant to be used for studying, quizzing and learning new information. Many scouting web questions are common questions that are typically seen in the classroom, for homework or on quizzes and tests. Flashcards vary depending on the topic, questions and age group. The cards are meant to be seen as a digital flashcard as they appear double sided, or rather hide the answer giving you the opportunity to think about the question at hand and answer it in your head or on a sheet before revealing the correct answer to yourself or studying partner. Some questions will include multiple choice options to show you the options involved and other questions will just have the questions and corrects answers. Simply reveal the answer when you are ready to check your work. Absolutely no cheating is acceptable.
