Drag each label to the correct location. Match the changed nucleotide sequences to the mutations that cause them.

Original Nucleotide Sequence: CATTCACACA

Changed Nucleotide Sequences:
1. CATTCACACCACG
2. CATTTCACACG
3. CATTCACG
4. CATTGCACAC

Let's match the changed nucleotide sequences to the appropriate types of mutations based on the given options.

Original Nucleotide Sequence: CATTCACACG

1. Deletion:
- Definition: A piece of DNA is removed.
- Changed Sequence: CATTCACG (CAC is missing)

2. Insertion:
- Definition: An extra piece of DNA is inserted.
- Changed Sequence: CATTCACACCACG (ACC inserted after CAC)

3. Inversion:
- Definition: A piece of DNA is flipped in orientation.
- Changed Sequence: CATTGCACAC (AC swapped with GC)

4. Duplication:
- Definition: A piece of DNA is duplicated.
- Changed Sequence: CATTTCACACG (C duplicated to T)

5. Substitution:
- Definition: One nucleotide is replaced by another.
- Changed Sequence: CATTGCACAC (A substituted by G)

Let's fill out the table with these details:

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|c|l|l|} \hline \text{Type of Mutation} & \begin{tabular}{l} Original Nucleotide \\ Sequence \end{tabular} & \begin{tabular}{c} Changed Nucleotide \\ Sequence \end{tabular} \\ \hline \text{deletion} & CATTCACACG & CATTCACG \\ \hline \text{insertion} & CATTCACACG & CATTCACACCACG \\ \hline \text{inversion} & CATTCACACG & CATTCACACA \\ \hline \text{duplication} & CATTCACACG & CATTTCACACG \\ \hline \text{substitution} & CATTCACACG & CATTGCACAC \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]

Now the table is complete with each changed nucleotide sequence correctly matched to its type of mutation.
