Answer:

D) The mutation must be in a gamete of the individual.

Explanation:

Heritability of mutations requires them to occur in germ cells /gametes only. Mutations in somatic cells are not transmitted to the next generations. The male and female gamete fuse together to form the zygote which in turn develop into new individuals. Hence, any mutation in the DNA of these gametes will be carried to the offspring.

The muscular dystrophy is the autosomal recessive disease. THis occur due to the mutation in the amino acids and arginine is replaced with histidine. The arginine pKa value is high whereas histidine pKa value is nearly upto 6-7. This disrupt the physiology of the proteins, disrupt its structure and result in the formation of misleading protein.
