Answer: 2. 33

Deleting one base causes a frameshift, so every codon after the deletion point is read differently.

  • Codon 300 covers bases 898 to 900, and base 901 is the first base of codon 301.
  • Codons 1 to 300 stay the same.
  • Codons 301 to 333 are altered: \(333-300=33\).

So 33 codons are altered.
