Explanation

A strong answer should explain describe that most mutations have no effect on phenotype, some influence phenotype, and very few determine phenotype using the context of Variation. This supports the approved learning objective: Describe that most mutations have no effect on phenotype, some influence phenotype, and very few determine phenotype. It belongs to Variation within Variation and evolution, so the explanation must stay inside that curriculum boundary. Alternative answers are weaker if they move away from Variation or the named objective.
