variation is difference between genes and trait among individual* organism within population.
mutation is change in genetic instruction
I hope it helps
mutation is an alteration in the nucleotide sequence of a gene whereas variation is any difference between individuals of a particular species.
What is the difference between variation and variety
Generally, mutation.
a gene is passed on from generations and a chromosome is just found in certain cells
A mutagen is a substance that CAUSES a mutation. Essentially, mutagens are the cause, mutations are the effect. Simple as that :)
Genotypic variation is caused by mutation. Phenotypic variation can be caused by mutation, which gives rise to different alleles, or it can be caused by environmental factors.

A variation of a gene is called and allele. Different alleles are caused by mutations.
Polymorphism refers to the existence of different forms of a gene within a population. It contributes to genetic diversity. Mutation, on the other hand, is a change in the DNA sequence that can result in genetic variation. Mutations can lead to new alleles, whereas polymorphism describes the presence of multiple alleles in a population.
magnetic variation
Basic source of variation in all organisms is mutation .
random changes or variation in a DNA sequence
