The chart below shows the codons that make up the genetic code and the sequence of nucleotides that corresponds to them. A mistake during DNA replication leads to a mutation in the nucleotide sequence shown below. This mutation results from the insertion of two nucleotides into the original sequence, which causes the reading frame of the sequence to change. This kind of mutation is known as
