Somatic means "of the body". These types of random mutations in body cells cause cancer/tumors or cell death/disease and are not passed down to offspring.

Only mutations in reproductive cells are part of evolutionary theory because this genetic material is passed down to future generations/offspring.

Answer : somatic cell mutations
