How does this DNS strand

Differ from this one?

I am not asking fr anyone to DO my homework, but it is a good wat to check my answers and help me. I am doing Bio 12 thru correspondese and appreciate the help

There is a frame shift mutation where a C (Cytosine) has been inserted between two G (Guanines).

The second strand has an extra base (cytosine)...that means there's an insertion mutation in the second strand (or a deletion mutation in the first strand depending on what the "normal" strand is supposed to be)

The second one has an C inserted between the two G's. Lower case letter below.

an extra "c" between the two "g"s i cant remember what they stand for but they change when you replicate ......is this supposed to be a strand that mutated?
or is it from two diff. things ie. animal to plant type comparison

Looks like an extra cytosine.

There's an extra chromosome in the bottom one.
