Yes, mutations are heritable if they occur in germ cells (sperm or egg cells) as they can be passed on to offspring. However, mutations that occur in somatic cells (non-reproductive cells) are not heritable.
Genotype and phenotype are to words that are not related. Genotype refers to classification by comparing genetics. Phenotype refers to classification according to the appearance of an organism.
The parents can pass on only the alleles of their genotypes to their offspring. Therefore, the offspring genotypes and phenotypes are dependent solely upon the alleles inherited from the parents.
Genotype and phenotype are to words that are not related. Genotype refers to classification by comparing genetics. Phenotype refers to classification according to the appearance of an organism.
Yes, appearance and phenotype are related. Phenotype refers to the observable characteristics of an organism, which includes its appearance such as physical traits like eye color, hair color, and height. These traits are determined by the organism's genotype interacting with environmental influences.

Prader-Willi Syndrome is a non-inherited genetic mutation/error that occurs at conception. It impacts males and females (pretty equally) and occurs across all races/ethnicities. See related link
Melinda feels she has inherited genes related to intelligence and creativity from her parents. She also believes she has inherited genes related to physical characteristics like hair color and eye color.
Human Mutation was established in 1992 as a scientific journal focusing on research related to mutations in humans.
It is because of an inherited phenotype, a phenotype is the outward expression of genes. the source of the inherited phenotype is dependent upon whether mother or fathers genotype is consisting of dominant or recessive allele i.e a dominant allele if pair with a recessive will be the one inherited.

Achondroplasia is caused by a mutation in the FGFR3 gene and is not related to a specific karyotype. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, and individuals with achondroplasia typically have a normal karyotype (46 chromosomes in humans).
