A marine biologist studies the body mass of fish in one population. All the fish belong to the same species.
Which result describes variation within the population?
The mean body mass can be calculated for the population.
The population has a different mean body mass from another species.
The body mass recorded for one fish changes when it is measured again.
There is a range of body masses among the individual fish.
