Biological variations occur in plants and animals when their physical appearance differs to that of the general population.
Mostly this occurs through a genetic mutation, and as such if the mutation proves to be an advantage to the plant in order to survive and thrive it can be carried forward in its genes to the next generation.
An example of a variation in a plant would be a species that developed tendrils to help it climb trees in search of sunlight, where the vast majority of plants don't do this.

Is the variation in weight in human populations an example of discrete or continuous variation?
It is an example of continuous variations.
What is the function of an angiosperms flower?
An angiosperm is a flowering plant. The flower is how the plant reproduces sexually. This allows for hybridzation and variation. Plants that reproduce by spores have less variation.

Main difference between inherited variation and enviromental variation?
Inherited variation is what is passed on through genetics, for example, your eye color. Environmental variation is influnced by the environment, for example, scars or clothing styles.
The equation y 8x is an example of inverse variation is this true?
No. This is not true. It is false. The equation is an example of direct variation.

Are all plant cells alike?
no. this is such due to the variation of the size and shape of the plant cell.
What is color variation?
Color variation is the difference in colors. For example, a car can come in several colors, this is color variation
What is an example of an everyday life example of direct variation?
If you are paid on an hourly rate, the number of hours that you work and your pay will be in direct variation.
Does the arctic tundra have plant variation?
i dont think so
Is color of flowers an example of continuous variation?
no, as a flower is either for example blue or white, and cannot be something in between, thus its discontinuous variation.
