Which of the following best describes how a cell’s dna can change through mutations? dna segments from broken-down prokaryotic cells are taken in and incorporated into the dna of living cells. a virus takes in a segment of dna from one bacterial cell and inserts it into another bacterial cell. a bridgelike connection forms between two prokaryotic cells, through which genetic information is transferred. changes in a cell’s dna sequences occur during replication, and those changes are passed on to daughter cells.
