Answer:

The correct answer would be allele.

Alleles refer to the alternative form of a gene that may result in different forms of traits of the same character.

For example, T and t are the alleles of the gene responsible for controlling the height of a plant. T codes for the tallness of the plant whereas t codes for dwarfness of the plant.

Similarly, in human blood groups I^{A}, I^{B}, and i are three alleles of a gene responsible for the blood group.
