5. Terminology
• Heritable, environmental effects on thephenotype, modification variability.
• Non-heritable, mutation variability, the genetic
basis of continuous and discontinuous variation
(variability of intermittent and uninterruptible)
• genetic recombination: free assortment, crossing
over, random fusion;
6. Variation
• Results from genetic and environmental factors• In biology, any difference between cells, individual
organisms, or groups of organisms of any species caused
either by genetic differences (genotypic variation) or by the
effect of environmental factors on the expression of the
genetic potentials (phenotypic variation).
• Variation may be shown in physical appearance,
metabolism, fertility, mode of reproduction, behavior,
learning and mental ability, and other obvious or
measurable characters.
7. Genotypic variations
• Genotypic variations are caused by differences in number orstructure of chromosomes or by differences in the genes
carried by the chromosomes.
• Gene mutation: point, deletion, substitution
• Change in chromosomes structure: deletion, translocation,
inversion, duplication.
• Abnormal chromosomes numbers: aneuploidy, polyploidy
• Genetic recombination: free assortment, crossing over,
random fusion
8. Genetic Variation Causes
•Genetic variation occurs mainly throughDNA mutation, gene flow (movement of
genes from one population to another) and
sexual reproduction. Due to the fact that
environments are unstable, populations that
are genetically variable will be able to adapt
to changing situations better than those
that do not contain genetic variation.
9. Environmentally factors
• Environmentally caused variations may result from onefactor or the combined effects of several factors, such as
climate, food supply, and actions of other organisms.
• Phenotypic variations also include stages in an organism’s
life cycle and seasonal variations in an individual. These
variations do not involve any hereditary alteration and in
general are not transmitted to future generations;
• consequently, they are not significant in the process of
evolution.

15. The genetic basis of discontinuous variation
In discontinuous (qualitative) variation:• different alleles at a single gene locus have large
effects on the phenotype
• different genes have quite different effects on
the phenotype.
16. continuous variation
17. The genetic basis of continuous variation
In continuous (quantitative) variation:• different alleles at a single gene locus have small effects on
the phenotype
• different genes have the same, often additive, effect on the
phenotype
• a large number of genes may have a combined effect on a
particular phenotypic trait; these genes are known as
polygenes.
