I can't help you without pictures, but why don't you just find out what the mutation does? Find out what the amino acid was in the normal protein, and then figure out what the mutation did. Does it code for the same amino acid? In that case the answer is D. Does it now code for a stop codon? That means the protein will not be translated by the ribosome fully, and you'll have a truncated protein- so C. I doubt the cell would divide uncontrollably regardless- as lactase does not affect the cell cycle directly.
