hey buddy ^__^
here is your answer...
The UV light can affect the colony of blue bacterium allowing it to replicate for several generations. The UV light causes Mutation in bacteria. The mutagen present in the UV light causes mutation in Bacteria. As we know that Mutation is a change in the genetic material and can impart more functionalities in an organism.
Hope it helps...
