Answer:

A. Sperm cell

Explanation:

Mutations are genetic alterations in the nucleotide sequence that form the genome of a given organism. In general, mutations have negative effects (i.e., mutations are generally deleterious), but sometimes these genetic changes may be adaptive (and therefore beneficial).
