Human papillomavirus (HPV) itself is not a mutation; it is a virus that can cause changes in the DNA of host cells. Some strains of HPV are associated with mutations that can lead to cancers, particularly Cervical cancer. These changes occur when the virus integrates its DNA into the host cell's genome, disrupting normal cellular processes. Thus, while HPV can lead to mutations in infected cells, it is not classified as a mutation itself.
