Answer:

the population is polymorphic.

Explanation:

Polymorphism is the discontinuous genetic variation that leads to the production of varying unique kinds or forms of individuals within the population of an individual species.

Take for instance, allelic polymorphism is seen in the presence of multiple alleles that is produced within the members of an individual species as in peppered moths, human blood groups, and two-spotted ladybugs.

We have different causes of polymorphism: polymorphism can be sustained by an equity among variation developed by new mutations and natural selection. Genetic variation might be due to frequency-dependent selection.

Zigmanuir [339]

A citizen will be looking for environmental benefit and public health, which will upsurge the quality of life of the community. The citizen may look for the benefits worth the cost. The CEO of the company might be worried about the costs that appear too high to warrant making environmental initiatives cost-efficient for the business.  

A city manager might or need to have the most balanced understanding, desiring to make improvements, which would better the lives of the citizens of the city, but that would keep the city within the municipal budget limits.
