Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Mutations can be of many types, such as substitution, deletion, insertion, and translocation.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA normally exists as two strands that wind into a shape called a double helix, with the bases on the two strands paired in a predictable way: A always pairs with T, and G with C (see Figure 1).
Detailed explanation-3: -A mutation is a change in the DNA sequence of an organism. Mutations can result from errors in DNA replication during cell division, exposure to mutagens or a viral infection.
