Eye color is an example of phenotypic variation, which refers to the observable traits of an organism resulting from the interaction of its genetic makeup (genotype) and environmental factors. This variation is primarily controlled by multiple genes, with the most significant being OCA2 and HERC2, influencing the amount and type of pigments produced in the iris. The range of eye colors, such as brown, blue, green, and hazel, illustrates the complex inheritance patterns and polygenic nature of this trait.

What is the definition for variation?
Variation refers to the degree of difference or diversity among individuals within a population or species. It can involve differences in traits, characteristics, or behaviors, which can be shaped by genetic, environmental, and other factors. Studying variation is important in understanding evolution, adaptation, and biodiversity.
A genetic characteristic of the individual?
A genetic characteristic of an individual refers to a trait that is determined by their genes, such as eye color, blood type, or susceptibility to certain diseases. These characteristics are inherited from parents and can vary among individuals.
