For Question 30...the Base 'g' belongs to the codon AGg which will now become AGA and it doesnt belong to the next codon and therefore it will not lead to ATT Formation..[All codons will be in multiples of 3...hence in the starting of line count from the number 241+242+243=1 codon[till previous line 240 bases means 80 codons completed]..244+245+246=2nd codon...hence the answer has to to domething with AAAA sequence that came in Option c...may be Poly A tail and hence premature termination of Transcription..hence shorter Proteins and hence Thalassemia..
