The most likely explanation for the variation is the offspring were produced from different combination of genes. A single pair of gold fish mentioned in the question means a male and a female gold fish. The two of them mated and contributed different genes to the fertilized fish eggs, this results in production of various body shape and colouration which is known as variation.

What other structures of the cytoskeleton would show the same pattern of microtubules as the flagellum?
alexira [117]
The appropriate response is cilia. Cilia are little hair-like structures on the surface of the cell. The hairs clear hair, bodily fluid, caught tidy and microscopic organisms up to the back of the throat where it can be gulped. 
Cilia are found in the coating of the trachea (windpipe), where they clear bodily fluid and earth out of the lungs. In female well evolved creatures, the beating of cilia in the Fallopian tubes moves the ovum from the ovary to the uterus.
