answer was Some inherited genetic mutations can be good for the offspring. 

Explanation:-

Mutations are accidents in the copying of DNA. A genetic mutation is a random change in the DNA that is passed on further generations of cells and or organisms. 

 

Genetic mutations are accidental changes in the DNA in the germ cells or early in the formation of the embryo. These changes if they are in the germ cell will be passed on to other organisms formed by sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction. An example would be the golden delicious apple. A lost of genetic information due to a mutation resulted in a different color of fruit.

Genetic mutations

A permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a gene such that the sequence differ from what is found in most people.

Gene mutations can be classified into :

1) Hereditary mutations

These are inherited from parents and are present through out a person's life in virtually all the cells.

2) Acquired mutations

They occur sometimes during a person's life and are present only in certain cells and not all cells.
