The correct option is B
traits

A phenotypic trait, or simply trait, is a distinct variant of a phenotypic characteristic of an organism; it may be either inherited or determined environmentally, but typically occurs as a combination of the two.For example, eye colour is a character of an organism, while blue, brown and hazel are traits.
