Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -A trait is a characteristic feature in an organism that is not often observed externally. It has a distinct variation from the phenotype of an organism.

Detailed explanation-2: -Genetic variations can arise from gene variants (also called mutations) or from a normal process in which genetic material is rearranged as a cell is getting ready to divide (known as genetic recombination). Genetic variations that alter gene activity or protein function can introduce different traits in an organism.
