Scientists say mutations are main form of genetic variation
Yet it must not be forgotten that mutation is the ultimate source of all genetic variation found in natural populations and the only raw material available for natural selection to work on" Professor Ernst Mayr, Animal Species and Evolution, p. 170 Other related topics ...

Characteristics are controlled not in a single place but by multiple genes
However it gradually emerged that most characters, even simple ones, are regulated by many genes: for instance, fourteen genes affect eye color in Drosophila. (Not only that. The mutation which suppresses 'purple eye' enhances 'hairy wing,' for instance. The mechanism is not understood ...

Cells contain large amounts of information to control and translate the information
Cells and organisms are also informed \intelligently designed and operated\ lifesupport systems. The basic component of any informed system is its plan. Here, argues the creationist, an impenetrable circle excludes the evolutionist. Any attempt to form a model or theory of the evolution ...
