Lightbulb Who's feeling competitive?

You can hide this advertisement by registering.
Greetings young, upright, bipedal, large brained mammals.

Biology enthusiasts, who wants a little competition? See who comes up with the best answers to any question you feel the need to post!
Simply to see what levels people are at, help out others and give us an idea of how hard we need to study. Remember, NO GOOGLING ANSWERS!

Ill start us off, shall I, a nice easy one about genetics and mutation J

Jim’s father has brown eyes, his mother has green eyes.
Jim was born with one eye brown-blue and the other just brown.
This mutation likely occurred in which of the following:
A) Sperm
B) Ova
C) Zygote
D) Embryo

A zygote is simply a fertilised egg. Since no cell differentiation has occured any mutation occuring at the zygote stage is going to be expressed in both eyes.
