3. In order to pass a mutation onto your offspring, what type of cell must contain the change? *

1 point

The ribosomes of the cell is reading the DNA incorrectly

All of the RNA within the cell is carrying the incorrect message to the ribosome

The nucleus of the cell is preventing certain mRNA from leaving and altering the gene expression

The different environment surrounding each type of cell causes them to express different portions of their DNA
