Question

How does the process of DNA replication impact mutations in an individual?

a All DNA replication stops when there is a mutation so the mutation wont hurt the individual
b Replication only produces new DNA strands so the old stand with the mutation is destroyed

c Since replication keeps the old strands as templates mutations maybe earned into future stands
d Mutations are often lost since the cell will die doring the replication process if the DNA is mutatie.​
