What mutation occurs in a brain cell this mutation will be passed on to?
A mutation taking place in brain cell can't be passed on to next generation but it may cause a tumor .
Are all mutations passed on to your children?
No, not all mutations are passed on to children. Mutations can occur in the DNA of reproductive cells (eggs and sperm) and if they are present in those cells, they can be passed on to the next generation. However, most mutations occur in non-reproductive cells and are not passed on to offspring.
What will mutation do if it occurs in a sex cell?
There offspring with mutations
What is it called when a trait is being passed down from one generation to the other?

How are genetic factors passed from one generation to another?

What are some genetic diseases that are passed down from generation to generation?
The term "genetic disease" refers to a disease that is inherited- or passed from one generation to the next.
Can a Mutation can be called a Deformity?

What scientists contributed to the understanding of how genetic information is passed from generation to generation?
Mendel
If a parent had an egg or sperm cell would the mutation be passed on?
yes, actually. when a sex cell is damaged, the mutations can be passed from generation to generation
How can a mutation be passed on to offspring?
A mutation can be passed on if it occurs in a sex cell. This is because offspring have a copy of the parent's genetic code, so any mutation that is present here will also be present in the offspring.
