The answer is B. germline mutation.
The germline mutation is heritable variation in the lineage
of reproductive (germ) cells. Germ cells are cells that give rise to the gametes, so a
mutation in germ cell will be seen in a sperm cell or egg cell but not in a skin cell, for example.
The point mutation is the changes in a single
nucleotide base on the DNA molecule.
Frameshift mutation, due to addition or
deletion of a base, results in the change of reading frame and totally
different translation
Somatic mutation is mutation in a somatic
cells and is not passed on to the next generation.
