Answer:

  • Point mutations happen when there is a replacement of one base pair from another, while Frameshift mutations occur when there is an insertion or deletion of the base pairs from the DNA structure.

  • Point mutations occur due to alterations in the single nucleotide, whereas frameshift occurs due to alterations in numerous nucleotides.

  • Point mutation brings changes in the structure of a gene because of the substitutions with another base pair, on the contrary, frameshift mutations change the number of nucleotides due to either insertions or deletions of the nucleotides.
