Answer:
The student is wrong, spermatozoa are germinal cells and therefore mitochondrial mutations (likewise genomic nuclear mutations) are inherited by offspring
Explanation:

Pea plants have 2 different variations for their genes. Ex: All of the offspring get Y for yellow plant and y for the green plant so they are all Yy. Yy is a yellow plant. yy is a green plant because of gene variations
