Identify the type of mutation for each changed nucleotide sequence compared to the original sequence: CATTCACACG.

Original Sequence: CATTCACACG

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

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|}
\hline
Type of Mutation & Original Nucleotide Sequence & Changed Nucleotide Sequence \\
\hline
Deletion & CATTCACACG & CATTCACG \\
\hline
Insertion & CATTCACACG & CATTCACACCACG \\
\hline
Inversion & CATTCACACG & CATTGCACAC \\
\hline
Duplication & CATTCACACG & CATTCACACA \\
\hline
Substitution & CATTCACACG & CATTTCACACG \\
\hline
\end{tabular}

Sure, let's examine the mutations one by one and fill in the missing sequences in the table:

1. Deletion:
- Original Nucleotide Sequence: "CATTCACACG"
- Changed Nucleotide Sequence: By removing the last nucleotide, the sequence becomes "CATTCACAC".

2. Insertion:
- Original Nucleotide Sequence: "CATTCACACG"
- Changed Nucleotide Sequence: By inserting one nucleotide at the end, the sequence becomes "CATTCACACGG".

3. Inversion:
- Original Nucleotide Sequence: "CATTCACACG"
- Changed Nucleotide Sequence: By reversing the last three nucleotides, the sequence changes to "CATTCACGCA".

4. Duplication:
- Original Nucleotide Sequence: "CATTCACACG"
- Changed Nucleotide Sequence: By duplicating the last three nucleotides, the sequence becomes "CATTCACACGACG".

5. Substitution:
- Original Nucleotide Sequence: "CATTCACACG"
- Changed Nucleotide Sequence: By substituting the last nucleotide 'G' with 'A', the sequence changes to "CATTCACACA".

Let's compile these into the table provided:

[tex]\[ \begin{array}{|l|c|c|} \hline \text{Type of Mutation} & \text{Original Nucleotide Sequence} & \text{Changed Nucleotide Sequence} \\ \hline \text{deletion} & \text{CATTCACACG} & \text{CATTCACAC} \\ \hline \text{insertion} & \text{CATTCACACG} & \text{CATTCACACGG} \\ \hline \text{inversion} & \text{CATTCACACG} & \text{CATTCACGCA} \\ \hline \text{duplication} & \text{CATTCACACG} & \text{CATTCACACGACG} \\ \hline \text{substitution} & \text{CATTCACACG} & \text{CATTCACACA} \\ \hline \end{array} \][/tex]
