The correct answer is insertion mutation.

The mutation is defined as the change in the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) sequences. The insertion mutation is a type of mutation, in which the insertion of the nucleotides takes place in the DNA sequences, resulting in an increase in the total number of base pairs in the DNA sequence. So, the insertion mutation has resulted in the increase in the base pairs in this case.
