    I found the whole exercise on the internet. Here are the events mentioned:

    " - Mismatched bases in the heteroduplex trigger mismatch repair.

    -Gaps in the R (wild-type) allele sequence are filled by copying the r (mutant) allele.

    -A heteroduplex is formed between R (wild-type) and r (mutant) alleles.

    -Mismatched bases are excised from the R (wild-type) allele.

    -The wild-type R allele is converted to the mutant r allele."

    The correct order is:

    1. Gaps in the R (wild-type) allele sequence are filled by copying the r (mutant) allele.

    2. A heteroduplex is formed between R (wild-type) and r (mutant) alleles.

    3. Mismatched bases in the heteroduplex trigger mismatch repair.

    4. Mismatched bases are excised from the R (wild-type) allele.

    5. The wild-type R allele is converted to the mutant r allele.
