Mutation is the ________ change in DNA

Explanation
Mutation is the random change in DNA because mutations occur spontaneously and can happen at any time during DNA replication or cell division. They are not directed or purposeful changes, but rather occur due to errors in DNA replication, exposure to mutagens, or other random events. These changes can lead to variations in genetic information and can have various effects on an organism's traits and characteristics.
