If a mutation occurs in a gamete, which of the following is most likely to result?
If the mutation occurs on a recessive gene, it will most likely be expressed.

If the mutation is non-disjunctive then an extra chromosome could be in every cell of the offspring.

The mutation will not always cause the offspring to be genetically disadvantaged.

The mutation will not be passed on to the offspring.
