Answer:

Mutations are essential to evolution; they are the raw material of genetic variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Mutation is the change in DNA of organism and evolution is the change in character of species followed over several generations.
  • DNA is responsible for hereditary information of any living being,like how it appears, how it behaves etc.
  • So a change in these factor causes drastic change in all aspects of his living life.
  • Creating a new allele, mutation acts as the basic factor for evolution.
