Cancer
Cancer is a disease that can occur from mutations that disrupt the control of cell reproduction. Mutations in genes involved in cell cycle regulation and growth can lead to uncontrolled cell division and the formation of tumors.
There could be a mutation in the genetic code that controls cell reproduction.
Cancer- certain mutations (changes) in a cell's genetic material may cause that cell to reproduce with out control.
The nucleus serves as the control center for cell metabolism and reproduction. It contains the cell's genetic information in the form of DNA, which regulates the cell's activities, including metabolism and reproduction through the synthesis of proteins.
Not with natural reproduction. If you cloned the parent that had the somatic mutation, you could pass it on to the offspring if you used the nucleus from the cell that had the somatic mutation.
Mutation occurs in a cell that produces gemetes
The nucleus serves as the control center for cell metabolism and reproduction. It contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and regulates gene expression to coordinate the cell's activities.
The nucleus serves as the control center for cell metabolism and reproduction in eukaryotic cells. It contains the cell’s genetic material (DNA) and regulates the activities of the cell by controlling gene expression.

If the mutation occurs in a somatic cell and the cell is still able to reproduce, the mutation continues in the daughter cells in following generations. If a mutation occurs in a gamete, the original organism remains unchanged. If that gamete is used for reproduction, then the mutation will continue in the offspring.
The nucleus serves as the control center for cell metabolism and reproduction. It contains the cell's DNA, which holds the instructions for carrying out these processes through gene expression and regulation.
