Question

The differences in the characters or traits among the individuals of a species are called as

• A. Variations
• B. Speciation
• C. Both A and B
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A Variations

Variation is any difference between cells, individual organisms, or groups of organisms of any species caused either by genetic differences (genotypic variation) or by the effect of environmental factors on the expression of the genetic potentials (phenotypic variation).

Speciation is the evolutionary formation of new biological species, usually by the division of a single species into two or more genetically distinct ones. The formation of new biological species by the development or branching of one species into two or more genetically distinct ones.
