A mutation that occurs in the gametes of an organism will most likely be transferred to which of the following?a. the siblings of the organismb. the offspring of an organismc. the other organisms living nearbyd. the mating partner of an organism

Respuesta :

A mutation that develops in an organism's gametes will most likely be passed on to the organism's siblings. Mutations that are passed on to offspring are referred to as inherited mutations.

What is  genetic diversity?

Only when a mutation affects reproductive cells may it be passed down via the family. Before, during, and after mitosis and meiosis, mutations can take place. A mutation can be passed on to offspring and increase the genetic diversity of the population if it happens in the cells that will undergo meiosis to produce gametes or during the process itself. Each gene is present in two copies in every organism.

Each gamete receives one of the gene copies at random during reproduction. Somatic mutations, as opposed to germ-line mutations, take place in cells from different parts of an organism's body.
