Study the above characteristics. Explain how you would develop a concept
based on the information in Diagram 8
Your explanation of the concept should include the following:
· Identify two common characteristics [2 marks]
· Develop initial concept [ 1 mark]
· Give another example and a non-example in relation to the concept
[2 marks]
· State the actual concept [ 1 mark]
ANSWER:
(a)
Continuous variation Discontinuous variation
7. Does not show obvious differences
in characteristics
Shows obvious differences in
characteristics
Influenced by environmental
factors
Influenced by genetic factors
Not inherited Inherited
Form a normal distribution graph Does not form a normal
distribution graph

(b)
· Two common characteristics:
Shows obvious differences in characteristics
Influenced by genetic factors
· Initial concept:
Variation that shows obvious differences in characteristics and
influenced by genetic factors is discontinuous variation.
Another example : Fingerprint // type of hair
· Non-example : Height // weight
· Actual concept:
A discontinuous variation is a variation that shows obvious
differences in characteristics and is influenced by genetic factors.
