say all animals had the exact same genes,then on one of the said animals one of the gene mutates and is now essentially a totally different gene.when they reproduce the gene will be passed on and then there are a wider range of genes.

What causes varation in traits?
Genotypic variation is caused by mutation. Phenotypic variation can be caused by mutation, which gives rise to different alleles, or it can be caused by environmental factors.
What is the source of genetic variation in asexual reproduction?
Mutation.
How point mutation frame shift mutation and meiosis contribute to genetic variation?
Nicely. Do your project on your own!
Is a source of genetic variation that refers to a random error in the genetic code?
dont cheat on study island!
Which process is a cause of variation in a species?
Sexual Reproduction Genetic mutation
What increases genetic variations?
A large population increases genetics variation. Mutation will also increase genetics variation.
Which type of selection tends to increase genetic variation?
Natural Selection.
What is the source of genetic variation?
Mutation.
The original source of genetic variation that serves as the raw material for natural selection is what?
Generally, mutation.
What is the difference between a variation and a mutation?
mutation is an alteration in the nucleotide sequence of a gene whereas variation is any difference between individuals of a particular species.
What are two sources of genetic variation?
Natural and Artificial Selection
