While the DNA in a human skin cell was being replicated, a single base was miscopied. What will be the most likely result of this for the cell in which it happened?
All the proteins the cell creates from the miscopied strand will do different jobs than the old ones.
If the new sequence codes for the same amino acid as the original cell, it will function normally.
Both new DNA strands will end up together in a new cell, and the inaccurate one will be discarded.
Any miscopied DNA will be replaced with an accurate DNA copy once the cell divides.

The answer is; If the new sequence codes for the same amino acid as the original cell, it will function normally

These are called mutation and occur at low rates in cells. This particular one is called a point mutation and is called a synonymous substitution because the new sequence codes for the same amino acid. This type of mutation does not cause a frameshift mutation.
