Match type mutation on the left with the definition on the right.

Draggable itemarrow_right_altCorresponding Item

silent

arrow_right_alt

changes the codon to a STOP codon

nonsense

arrow_right_alt

the genetic code shifts, resulting in a change of amino acids during translation

frameshift

arrow_right_alt

has no effect on the amino acid produced during translation
