Does anyone have this flowchart or know how to answer this syllabus dot point?

'process information to construct a flow chart that shows that changes in DNA sequences can result in changes in cell activity'

Thanks.

Normal DNA sequence: (enzyme lysozyme)

TAG-TTT-TCA-GGT-AGT-GAA-TTA-CGA

The mutuation is of 'insertion' type; e.g. add T at the beginning:

TTA-GTT-TTC-AGG-TAG-TGA-ATT-ACG-A

The new sequence gives a completely different chain of a.a. And this is a dysfunctional protein.

PS: you can use your book to write the name of these a.a.s below the letters.
