PART C IS THE PART I NEED HELP WITH PLEASE

Below is a partial mRNA sequence. Use it to answer the following questions.

5' - GCCGAUCGAACU - 3'

What is the correct reading frame for this mRNA?

5' - G | CCG | AUC | GAA | CU - 3'

If a single base-pair deletion occurred in the part of the gene that corresponds to the mRNA above and the resulting partial amino acid sequence was (N-term-...P-M-N...-C-term), which new partial mRNA sequence would be consistent with this change?

5' - G | CCG | AUG | AAC | U - 3'

Part C

The amino acids in the original partial sequence (N-term-...P-I-E...-C-term) have little to no impact on protein structure and function. However the amino acid sequence near the C-terminal end of the protein is required for normal function. Any amino acid changes in this region of the protein will result in a nonfunctional protein.

Given this information, which reversion mutation in the gene would restore the normal function of the protein?

Select all that apply.

Insertion of 2 base-pairs in the region of the proline codon

Deletion of 5 base-pairs in the region of the proline codon

Deletion of 2 base-pairs in the region of the proline codon

Deletion of 1 base-pair in the region of the proline codon

Insertion of 1 base-pair in the region of the proline codon

Insertion of 4 base-pairs in the region of the proline codon
