They obtain the gene but follow the dominant one. They will act like one of the mutant, won't act wild if their parents aren't wild.
When two mutants with the same phenotype are crossed and the progeny exhibit a wild-type phenotype, it suggests that the mutations are likely in the same gene and are recessive. This means that both parental mutants are homozygous for the same recessive allele, and when combined, they produce offspring with the dominant wild-type phenotype. Therefore, the mutations are allelic to each other.
lethal
HA! there are no genetic mutations! DINOSAURS ARE DINOSAURS! DINOSAURS ARE DINOSAURS! no mutants
Producing mutants with desirable mutations can be challenging and often requires selective breeding, genetic manipulation, or exposure to mutagens. While some mutations may occur naturally, it is not always easy for breeders to control which mutations appear or to ensure that they are beneficial. Additionally, ethical considerations and regulations may impact the process of producing mutants.
Rare, exceptional discontinuous variants are called mutants, whereas the more common "normal" companion phenotype is called the wild type. In many cases, the wild-type and mutant phenotypes are determined by the alleles of one gene. Mutants can occur spontaneously in nature (e.g., albinos) or they can be obtained after treatment with mutagenic chemicals or radiations. Geneticists regularly induce mutations artificially to carry out genetic analysis because mutations that affect some specific biological function under study identify the various genes that interact in that function. Note that polymorphisms originally arise as mutations, but somehow the mutant allele becomes common.
SIMPLE QUESTION WITH A COMPLICATED ANSWERMutants and mutations happen all the time But not like in the movies!Evolution is a series of tiny mutations that are successful moving the species forward in the evolutionary process Movie type Mutants with three arms or giant brains are incredibly unlikely to survive, never mind be dangerous.

Mutants do not actually exist, as in aliens from outer space or weird creatures. Mutants as in scientific accidents do exist, though. Certainly they do. Albinism, for example, is a mutation that occurs in many species. However, if you're asking "Do mutants as depicted in X-whatever exist" then the answer is of course they don't. Many mutations are fatal (and by fatal, I mean the organism with the mutations doesn't even live long enough to be born or hatched or whatever), and almost all mutations are detrimental or at best indifferent. Some mutations are beneficial, such as a moth having a color slightly closer to tree bark and therefore being harder for predators to spot... but these are a) exceedingly rare and b) typically tiny, tiny changes in existing abilities, not "can control magnetism."
Mutants in the Marvel Universe can exhibit a wide range of physical mutations due to the X-gene. Some mutants may have minor physical changes or enhancements that make them look different than normal humans, while others may have more drastic mutations that give them animal-like features. These variations in appearance are a result of the randomness and unpredictability of the X-gene's activation and expression.
Mutants. They are usually 99,999999% the same as the original mutated organism. If they were too different, they wouldn't be viable, could not live.
Mutants in the sense you mean do not exist. Actual mutations generally result in no noticeable change or the power to not live very long; even a "simple" living organism is a highly complicated piece of machinery and a mutation is effectively the equivalent of whacking a clock with a sledgehammer. Very rarely a mutation turns out to have a beneficial effect, but those are along the lines of "blends in slightly better with background foliage," not "shoots laser beams from eyes."
No- mutants do not exist.
