Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Only hereditary mutations, which occur in egg or sperm cells, can be passed to future generations and potentially contribute to evolution. Some mutations occur during a person's lifetime in only some of the body's cells and are not hereditary, so natural selection cannot play a role.
