Answer:

4) pass the mutations on to the cells that develop from it.

Explanation:

There are two types of cell formed in the body, the gamete cells which are involved in the formation of new organisms and the somatic cells which are involved in the growth of the organism.

If some mutation takes place in the somatic cell of the organism then the mutation will only pass on to the cells that are formed from that somatic cell. In the given question, if the mutation takes place in the skin cell which is a somatic cell therefore the mutation will be passed on to the cell that is formed from it.

Thus, Option-4 is correct.
