Answer:

C). Germline mutations are inherited from a parent while somatic mutations are caused by mutagens in the environment.

Explanation:

MUTATION is any change that occurs to the nucleotide sequence of a gene whether caused by a mistake during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substance). A mutation can be germline or somatic depending on the affected area or how it occured.

Germline mutations are mutations that affects the nucleotide sequence in a gamete or reproductive cell (germline cells). Hence, it can be inherited by an offspring during reproduction. On the other hand, somatic mutations affect body cells. It is a change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene in the body cell or somatic cell. It is usually induced by mutation-causing substances in the environment called MUTAGENS. Somatic mutations can not be transferred to offsprings and it only affects the cells of the specific area it occured.

Answer:

Somatic vs Germline Mutations. ... Somatic mutations – occur in a single body cell and cannot be inherited (only tissues derived from mutated cell are affected) Germline mutations – occur in gametes and can be passed onto offspring (every cell in the entire organism will be affected)
