Question

genetic variation refers to:

a. all organisms having the same genes
b. the differences in dna sequence between individuals
c. the process of making proteins
d. traits acquired during an organisms lifetime

Explanation:

Genetic variation is about differences in genetic material. Option a is incorrect as it's the opposite (no variation if same genes). Option c refers to protein synthesis (translation/transcription processes, not variation). Option d are acquired traits (not genetic). Option b correctly describes genetic variation as differences in DNA sequence between individuals.

Answer:

B. the differences in DNA sequence between individuals
