Can mutated dna sequences be passed from parent to offspring

Mutation- A change in genetic structure of a organism is called as mutation.

It can be inherited to offspring if it is germline or germinal mutation , mutation that occurs in germ cells like sperm and ovum.

Explanation:

Each of the genes of a child is the copy of his parents,  one from mother and one from father.  Any kind of changes or mutation in any genes of them can be inherited to child

Mutations caused by environmental factors can not transferred to next generation. Mutation caused by UV radiation, smoking, sunlight are non inheritable..
