Hey there,
Mistakes/mutations in replication would lead to alterations in the nucleotide sequence in the DNA, and these alterations would be passed on to daughter cells when the cell divide.
Hope this helps :))

A mutation is an heritable change in the dna of a cell. mutations are rare occurrences and are often caught by the cell's "proofreading" system during cell replication and so are not passed on to offspring.
