Question

If there is a mutation in a zygote, where is it likely to be found in the fetus?
A: The mutation will show up in any fetal cells formed by mitosis but not in those formed by meiosis.

B: The mutation will only be in the one cell that was the original zygote and the other cells of the fetus will not have it.

C: The mutation will occur in all the cells of the fetus since they all formed by mitosis from the zygote.

D: The mutation will only be found in the types of cells in the fetus that are formed by meiosis.

Answer 1

The correct answer is C.
The zygote is a single fertilized egg cell that the embryo develops from.
This one cell possesses one copy of DNA that is going to be passed to all other cells in the embryo because all other cells of the embryo develop through mitotic divisions of the zygote.
Therefore, if a mutation happens in the zygote DNA, all of the cells in the embryo are going to have it as well.
