In which of the following ways might the effects of a mutation in a skin cell be different from those of a mutation in a sperm cell?
sperm cell mutations are more likely to get corrected since meiosis has two phases, while skin cell mutations have only the single phase of mitosis in which to be corrected.
a mutated sperm cell will always be destroyed during meiosis before it leaves the testes, while skin mutations remain within the skin.
there is little chance that a sperm mutation will affect the testes, while skin mutations almost always develop into cancer.
the mutation in the sperm cell could be passed on to offspring, while the skin cell mutation could only affect the individual.
