Which evidence best supports the claim that mutations are a source of inheritable genetic variation?(1 point) Responses Mutations can only happen during meiosis because genes are inherited. Mutations can only happen during meiosis because genes are inherited. Mutations affect protein synthesis which impacts the way traits are expressed. Mutations affect protein synthesis which impacts the way traits are expressed. Mutations affect the way DNA is created through transcription. Mutations affect the way DNA is created through transcription. Mutations are not inheritable from gametes because they are given from each parent.
The evidence that best supports the claim that mutations are a source of inheritable genetic variation is: "Mutations affect protein synthesis which impacts the way traits are expressed."
This is because mutations can alter the sequence of DNA, leading to changes in the structure and function of proteins. These changes can then impact the way traits are expressed and passed on to future generations through inheritance.
