Answer:

C) sometimes

Step-by-step explanation:

No; only a small percentage of mutations cause genetic disorders—most have no impact on health or development. For example, some mutations alter a gene's DNA sequence but do not change the function of the protein made by the gene

Some genetic mutations, like being able to drink milk are beneficial. While others, like sickle cell anemia. I know you didn’t ask, but it’s just for future reference.
