What is the difference between gremlins mutations and somatic mutations?

C). Germline mutations are inherited from a parent while somatic mutations are caused by mutagens in the environment.

Explanation:

MUTATION is any change that occurs to the nucleotide sequence of a gene whether caused by a mistake during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substance). A mutation can be germline or somatic depending on the affected area or how it occured.

Germline mutations are mutations that affects the nucleotide sequence in a gamete or reproductive cell (germline cells). Hence, it can be inherited by an offspring during reproduction. On the other hand, somatic mutations affect body cells. It is a change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene in the body cell or somatic cell. It is usually induced by mutation-causing substances in the environment called MUTAGENS. Somatic mutations can not be transferred to offsprings and it only affects the cells of the specific area it occured.

when you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and moves downward. this increases the space in your chest cavity, into which your lungs expand. the intercostal muscles between your ribs also enlarge the chest cavity. they contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.
