The correct options are
A DNA replication
B Chemical agents
C Ionising radiation
Mutation can be caused due to internal or external factors. Errors in the DNA replication is an internal factor whereas external factors include chemical agents and radiation. Tissue damage does not cause mutation because its only a mechanical damage outside the body.
