Explanation:

Mutations are genetic alterations in the nucleotide sequence that form the genome of a given organism. In general, mutations have negative effects (i.e., mutations are generally deleterious), but sometimes these genetic changes may be adaptive (and therefore beneficial). Somatic mutations are genetic alterations acquired by somatic cells (they can not be inherited by the offspring), while germline mutations occur in gametes (sperm and egg) and they can be inherited by the offspring, thereby affecting the progeny of the organism.
