According to Graph 1 (Part II), which of the following statements explains the changes seen in the frequency of a mutation in a group of people over several generations?


The student says the answer is Why are they incorrect?

B. The mutation immediately spread to the entire population because it is a harmful mutation.  

Organisms with harmful mutations are less likely to survive and pass on their traits.
