A mutant can be mutated just as any other life form.
A mutagen is a substance that CAUSES a mutation. Essentially, mutagens are the cause, mutations are the effect. Simple as that :)
Individuals with a mutation can pass it on to their offspring because the mutation is present in their germline cells (sperm or eggs), which are used to create offspring. This means that the genetic mutation is incorporated into the DNA of the offspring, resulting in them inheriting the mutation.
A negative mutation is one which is harmful to the organism. The result of a negative mutation is a non-sense protein. Examples of negative mutations include:a frame shift mutation - codons are read wrongan insertion mutation - insertion of a sequence of extra nucleotidesa deletion mutation - deletion of a chain of nucleotidesa non-sense mutation - results in the creation of a non-sense proteina transition mutation - exchange of purines to pyrimidines thus changing the nucleotide sequence and resulting in a mutation.
Point Mutation is the mutation that involves a single or few nucleotide. This type of mutation replaces a single nucleotide to another.
It can have absolutely no affect, a bad affect, or even a good affect.*Deletion and Addition are frameshift: most harmful.
A mutant.
The only way to become a mutant is via a mutation, but a mutation does not guarantee a unique phenotype. (I'm assuming, here, that you're using a biological definition of "mutant" and not a more fanciful definition.)
Everyone is a mutation to a greater or lesser degree, just look around you and you will see a mutant.
Blue eyes were caused by a genetic mutation.

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.
A mutation does not affect an organism trait for a reason. It is neutral which depends on the environment.

A mutant skeleton is a fictional or concept creature that combines elements of mutation and a skeleton, often portrayed as a creature with abnormal or exaggerated skeletal features. These can be found in various forms of media such as video games, movies, and literature.
