Answer: The correct answer is-
an agent that causes a mutation in DNA.
Mutagen is an agent or a substance that causes permanent change in the genetic material of living organisms ( DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid). This process is called mutation.
A mutagen can be a chemical, physical or biological agent that causes mutation in the DNA.
Example- Physical agents such as -
- Ionizing radiations like alpha particles, gamma rays, X-rays that brings break in the DNA and cause other damages.
- Ultraviolet radiations that creates pyrimidine dimers ( T=T) and causes replication errors if damage is not repaired.

In the cardiac system where the blood pressure and transfer from one part of
the body to another exceeds the normal levels of the body. The heart is

deposits in the vessels or in the heart itself.
Hence hypertension contributes to the conditions that
already exists such as stress, or existing disorders and worsen it.
