A mutation in a sex cell (germ cell) can be passed on to offspring, potentially affecting future generations, while a mutation in a non-sex cell (somatic cell) typically only affects the individual organism and is not inherited. Germ cell mutations can lead to hereditary diseases or traits if they occur in the DNA that contributes to the formation of gametes. In contrast, somatic mutations may lead to issues like cancer but do not affect the genetic material that is inherited by the next generation.
The biological term for a sex cell ( i.e. sperm cell or egg cell) is a gamete. Sperm cells in particular are called spermatazoa.
