Solution

The statement "any of the above can occur" is not a possible effect of a mutation. This is because it is not a specific effect, but rather a general statement that includes all possible effects. The other options listed (prevents a protein from forming, lowers the amount of a protein, adds a function to a protein) are all specific effects that can occur as a result of a mutation.
