Question

How do mutations lead to genetic variation within a species?

O A. Making exact copies of DNA increases the rate at which parents
can produce offspring.
B. Changes in DNA produce genetic traits that can be passed on to
offspring.
C. Making exact copies of DNA increases the total number of
organisms in a population.
OD. Changes in DNA prevent organisms from surviving long enough to
reproduce.
