Let's match the provided sequences to their respective types of mutations. We start with the original sequence and then identify the changes that have occurred in each of the sequences:
1. Original Sequence: CATTCACACA
2. Changed Sequence: CATTCACG
- Type of Mutation: Deletion
- Explanation: In this sequence, some nucleotides have been deleted from the original sequence resulting in CATTCACG.
3. Changed Sequence: CATTCACACCACG
- Type of Mutation: Insertion
- Explanation: In this sequence, extra nucleotides have been inserted into the original sequence, making it longer: CATTCACACCACG.
4. Changed Sequence: CAITECACAC
- Type of Mutation: Inversion
- Explanation: In this sequence, a part of the original sequence has been inverted, leading to CAITECACAC.
5. Changed Sequence: CATTTCACACG
- This sequence does not match with any of the provided sequences corresponding to "deletion," "insertion," or "inversion." Thus, it should not be matched.
Next, let's place these correctly matched mutations into our table:
\begin{tabular}{|c|l|l|}
\hline
Type of Mutation & Original Nucleotide Sequence & Changed Nucleotide Sequence \\
\hline
Deletion & CATTCACACA & CATTCACG \\
\hline
Insertion & CATTCACACA & CATTCACACCACG \\
\hline
Inversion & CATTCACACA & CAITECACAC \\
\hline
\end{tabular}
