A short segment of DNA from a prokaryotic genome is shown

A short segment of DNA from a prokaryotic genome is shown below. Assume this is part of a much longer sequence. TTAAACGCTG CCCGGCGAATT AATTTGCGAC A GGCCGCTTAA Pick the correct statement from below. Mismatch repair enzymes will remove part of the strand containing the C from the TOP strand assuming the LOWER strand is more methylated. Mismatch repair enzymes will remove part of the strand containing the C from the TOP strand assuming the TOP strand is more methylated. Repair is not possible for a mutation like the one shown in the middle of this double-stranded molecule.
