Answer:

A. Mutations in genetic material

Step-by-step explanation:

Genetic disorders are typically inherited (passed down) in either a dominant or recessive manner.

Genetic disorders can be caused by a mutation in one gene (or more), by a combination of gene mutations and environmental factors or by damage to chromosomes.
