The answer is A. A population with many different traits mist likely has many alleles of a particular gene for a particular trait. The environmental influence on the varying genotypes, therefore, produces the varying phenotypic traits. Genetic variability is important in that it increases the chance of survival for the population. Genetic diversity also reduces the incidences of unfavorable inherited traits by reducing inbreeding.
