Dr Carpenter ,
on Microbial Genetics lecture, the slide on Germline Mutation and Evolutionary Biology, it states that only germ cell mutations are transmitted to offspring. This statement confuses me. The word "only" is what confuses me . Could you please explain it? Thank you very much ! I enjoy all your lectures! very educational indeed !
