Question

environmental genetic variation quick check
which factor could increase the possibility of mutations in your offspring? (1 point)
nothing because mutations are random
having a mutation on a non - gamete cell
smoking tobacco
nothing because mutations are not inherited

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Mutations can be caused by environmental factors. Smoking tobacco exposes one to mutagens (substances that cause mutations). Mutations in non - gamete cells (somatic mutations) are not passed on to offspring. Mutations are not always random (some are induced by environmental factors), and some mutations (in gametes) can be inherited.

Answer:

smoking tobacco
