Biology for IGCSE & O level - Variation And Selection (Section 7 - No. 21)
A scientist measures the length of seashells found on a rocky shore. They collect a large sample and create a histogram of the data. Which type of variation are they most likely investigating?
Discontinuous variation
Genetic variation
Continuous variation
Environmental variation
Explanation
The continuous nature of seashell length (a range of values) suggests it's continuous variation. This is also confirmed by the use of a histogram.
