D. a mutation causing uncontrolled cell division

Explanation:

Mutations can be beneficial, neutral or harmful and therefore are not targeted, occurring at random. This means that a change in DNA can provide an improvement in the body, cause no advantage or harm or even trigger problems, as in the case of genetic diseases. Thus, a mutation does not arise to guarantee the evolution of an organism, but is completely random.

Beneficial mutations are those that bring benefits to the body by helping it survive, or by helping with a particular task. We can cite as beneficial mutations:

On the other hand, an evil mutation is one that causes damage to the body, such as a mutation that causes uncontrolled cell division.
