The correct answer is (c) The offspring will inherit neither the genotype nor the phenotype change.

Mutation is a slight change in the genetic material of cell.The mutation that is carried from one generation to other is to be in the germ cell. The mutation that occurs in the body cell is not inherited to another generation. The mutation that occurs in a body cell might change the phenotype of the person  but is not transferred to another generation. The conclusion is that the offspring will not have any change in the phenotype and genotype of the body.
