उत्तर

Mutation alerts the hereditary materiel of an organism's cell and results in a change in certain characters of traits. For example:
(a) Sickle-cell anemia is a blood disease caused by a gene mutation. The mutation causes a change in the DNA which controls the productivity of RBCs.
(b) Radioactive radiations also alter the gene structure and their effects can be seen generation after generation.
