Answer: No

Explanation:

Since all cells in our body contain DNA, there are lots of places for mutations to occur; however, some mutations cannot be passed on to offspring and do not matter for evolution. Somatic mutations occur in non-reproductive cells and won't be passed onto offspring. For example, the golden color on half of this Red Delicious apple was caused by a somatic mutation. Its seeds will not carry the mutation.

The only mutations that matter to large-scale evolution are those that can be passed on to offspring. These occur in reproductive cells like eggs and sperm and are called germ line mutations.

Explain the reasons for changes in how organisms are classified.
san4es73 [151]
<span>Organisms used to be classified in the earliest times according to their size. As science progressed, they started getting organized by their physical traits and now they're organized by traits found in their species that are not found in others based on the theory of evolution. They are classified according to how they developed from a starting organism.</span>
