A mutation causes changes in the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) sequence, which can be due to environmental factors called mutagens. They are radiation, chemicals, and infectious agents. When DNA is mutated, nucleotide becomes arranged in the wrong order where coded instructions get changed, and faulty proteins are formed. The body cannot function properly. It can be inherited from one or both parents.
