Expert Solution
Step 1

The term "Mutation" can be defined as the random and sudden inheritable changes in the DNA sequence of an organism. It may be caused by mistakes during cell division, or they may be caused by exposure to DNA-damaging agents in the environment. Mutations can be harmful, beneficial, or neutral.
