The best evidence that supports the claim that mutations are a source of inheritable genetic variation is:
**Mutations affect protein synthesis which impacts the way traits are expressed.**
This response highlights the direct link between mutations, the resulting protein products, and how these influence traits, which can be passed on to the next generation.
