Mutations during meiosis can lead to genetic variability in offspring. Depending on the type and location of the mutation, it can result in genetic disorders, altered traits, or have no noticeable effect.
A mutation that can be inherited by offspring would result from a change in the DNA sequence of a germ cell (sperm or egg) in the parent. This mutation would be present in the offspring's DNA and can be passed down to future generations.
When a chromosome is not copied correctly during meiosis, it can lead to genetic mutations or chromosomal abnormalities in the resulting gametes. This can result in offspring with genetic disorders or developmental problems. In some cases, it can also lead to infertility or miscarriages.
Non-disjunction during meiosis can lead to the production of gametes with an abnormal number of chromosomes, which can result in genetic disorders such as Down syndrome.
This is known as nondisjunction. It is a mistake that can occur during cell division in meiosis, leading to an incorrect distribution of chromosomes in the resulting gametes.
The mutation may be passed on to an offspring. Depending on the mutation, it may have no effect, or it could be lethal.
Mutations during meiosis can lead to genetic variability in offspring. Depending on the type and location of the mutation, it can result in genetic disorders, altered traits, or have no noticeable effect.

A chromosomal mutation during meiosis can result in genetic variability in offspring due to the formation of gametes with altered chromosomes. In contrast, a similar mutation during mitosis of a body cell not involved in reproduction can lead to a mosaic pattern of affected and unaffected cells in the individual's body. This can result in a localized impact on tissues or organs depending on the extent of mosaicism.
