Sometimes a mutation is beneficial to an organism’s fitness and can be passed on to offspring. what is likely to happen to the mutation over many generations?
any genetic variation will not persist because the mutation is a one-time event.
there is a random chance of the mutation spreading to other individuals in the population.
the mutation will become more common in offspring and increase the genetic variability in the gene pool.
genetic recombination is the only way that variations can be passed on, so the mutation will die out.
