Usually mutations have deleterious effects to the organism, but occasionally there are beneficial mutations. Such mutations drive evolution.
False. Not all mutations are harmful. Some mutations can be beneficial or have no effect on an organism. Mutations are simply changes in the genetic material of an organism, and their impact on an organism's traits can vary.
Darwinian evolution works very slowly over hundreds of generations. Though 99percent of mutations may be lost through natural selection the remaining 1 percent positive mutations will eventually, given sufficient time, improve the fit of the species to it's environment.
One untrue statement about DNA is that it is the only genetic material in living organisms. Another untrue statement is that all DNA is organized in the same way in all organisms. Additionally, it is false to say that DNA is a protein.
Yes, it is true that not all bacteria are pathogens. In fact, the majority of bacteria are harmless or even beneficial to humans and other organisms. Only a small percentage of bacteria are pathogenic and can cause disease.
False. Mutation is a natural process that can result in positive, negative, or neutral impacts on an organism. While some mutations can be harmful and lead to diseases or disorders, others can be beneficial and contribute to evolution by providing genetic variation.

Yes they are. Simpler life forms have more resistance. Radiation catalyses mutations in the DNA sequences of organisms. This is why you can get cancer from radiation (e.g. skin cancer from ultra-violet radiation) because cancer is caused by mutations in multicellular organisms.
The statement is true.
This statement is true. Reproduction in asexual organisms result in an exact copy of the parent organism. Sexual reproduction will have traits from both parent organisms.
False. Mutations can have various effects on organisms, ranging from beneficial (e.g., providing resistance to disease) to neutral (having no significant impact) to harmful (causing health issues). The impact of a mutation depends on the specific change in the genetic material and the environment in which the organism lives.
If the statement is false, then "This statement is false", is a lie, making it "This statement is true." The statement is now true. But if the statement is true, then "This statement is false" is true, making the statement false. But if the statement is false, then "This statement is false", is a lie, making it "This statement is true." The statement is now true. But if the statement is true, then... It's one of the biggest paradoxes ever, just like saying, "I'm lying right now."
One untrue statement about DNA is that it is the only genetic material in living organisms. Another untrue statement is that all DNA is organized in the same way in all organisms. Additionally, it is false to say that DNA is a protein.
Circular logic would be a statement or series of statements that are true because of another statement, which is true because of the first. For example, statement A is true because statement B is true. Statement B is true because statement A is true

Gametic mutations occur in the cells of the gonads (which produce sperm and eggs) and may be inherited. There are two types of mutations that can occur in gamete cells: 1. Gene Mutations 2. Chromosomal Mutations
