Dimorphic, polymorphic, and continuously variable traits are distinguished as follows:
Dimorphism is the condition of those<em> species</em> of animals or plants that exhibit two anatomical aspects or two different forms.
When talking about polymorphisms in genetics, reference is made to the different variations that may exist on the DNA of the same gene.
Continuously variable traits are those that show a continuous distribution of phenotypes.
Therefore, we can conclude that dimorphism is a polymorphism with only two forms, the polymorphism is any stable change of the DNA fixed in the population and in continuously variable traits the phenotypes show a continuous series and cannot be easily grouped.
<em>I. G1 phase (Gap 1) - Cellular contents excluding the chromosomes, are duplicated. II. S phase (DNA Synthesis) - Each of the 46 chromosomes is duplicated by the cell.</em>
