The correct answer is the release of free radicals.  In accidental injuries such as a pulled muscle, there will be a subsequent inflammation and the inflammatory process involves the release of inflammatory mediators which then will increase the migration of inflammatory cells (i.e. neutrophils, lymphocytes) on the site of inflammation. This influx of inflammatory cells will produce a large amount of free radicals (i.e. hydrogen peroxide, superoxide ions) which then will damage DNA.

serg [7]
Getting the probability for each event can easily be done using Punnett Square (say, Hh x Hh for the couple since they are both carriers of the disease). Doing so will result to: 0.25 probability of an offspring not having the disease and is not a carrier of the gene, 0.50 probability of an offspring not having the disease and is a carrier of the gene, and a 0.25 probability of an offspring having the disease. The probability of these events apply to each offspring, and will not depend on how many children they want to have. This means each offspring has a 0.25-0.50-0.25 chance of not being a carrier, being a carrier, and having the disease, respectively.
