Question

Which term best describes the difference in colors of the birds below?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is C) genetic variation

Explanation:

Genetic variation can be described as the differences present in the genetic material i.e DNA of organisms present in a population. Genetic diversity allows organisms of a species to better adapt to an environment. A population in which the genetic variability is scarce might become wiped out by a disease or an invading predator.
