Which statement BEST describes how mutations are related to evolution?

There is not a strong relationship between mutations and evolution
Natural selection causes evolution, which causes more mutations to appear
in the DNA of the species.
Mutations are changes in DNA that produce weaker organisms that die, so
these are eliminated by evolution.
Mutations lead to new genes, which may have an advantage over the old
forms, causing the species to evolve
