Hmm. I wonder A mutation is a change in the DNA sequence. Mutations can occur naturally due to errors during DNA replication or due to environmental factors like radiation or certain chemicals. They can lead to variations in traits, and while some mutations can be harmful or cause diseases, others might have no noticeable effect or can even be beneficial.

A beneficial mutation might confer resistance to a particular disease or help an organism better adapt to its environment.
