To solve this problem, we need to determine under which condition there will be no change in the reading frame of the given mRNA sequence.The original mRNA sequence is:AACAGCGGUGCUAUULet's analyze each option:Option 1: Insertion of G at 5th position - The sequence becomes: 5'AACAGGCGGUGCUAUU3' - This insertion shifts the reading frame, causing a frameshift mutation.Option 2: Deletion of G from 5th position - The sequence becomes: 5'AACACGGUGCUAUU3' - This deletion also shifts the reading frame, causing a frameshift mutation.Option 3: Insertion of A and G at 4th and 5th positions respectively - The sequence becomes: 5'AACAAGCGGUGCUAUU3' - This insertion shifts the reading frame, causing a frameshift mutation.Option 4: Deletion of GGU from 7th, 8th, and 9th positions - The sequence becomes: 5'AACACUCUAUU3' - This deletion removes a complete codon (GGU), so the reading frame is not altered.Therefore, the correct option is Option 4, as it does not change the reading frame.
