Some examples of discrete traits include blood type (A, B, AB, O), fingerprints patterns (loop, whorl, arch), and tongue rolling ability (can roll tongue or cannot roll tongue). These traits have distinct categories or options with no intermediate forms.
The type of variation where a characteristic can only take on specific, distinct values is called discrete variation. Unlike continuous variation, which allows for a range of values, discrete variation often involves traits that are categorical or countable, such as the number of petals on a flower or the presence or absence of a certain gene. This variation is typically influenced by genetic factors and can result in observable phenotypic traits.
Some examples of dispositional traits include honesty, extraversion, neuroticism, openness, agreeableness, and conscientiousness. These traits are believed to be relatively stable over time and across different situations, influencing an individual's behavior and reactions.
From a purist point of view, there is probably only a few true examples of discrete variation in humans. However, we have the common sense practical real world ways to describe some things as discrete. A coma scale used, Glasgow, is discrete. Also, vision is expressed as discrete values. See attached related links. In addition, number of seizures is discrete along with pulse (heart) rate.
height, hair color, eye color, diabetes, heart disease, cancer these are more common..mendelian traits are more rare and easier to predict
" many bodies " traits. The three alleles for blood type is an example of this. Height/size is another example of this and many other variations in animal physiology are examples of this. Discrete traits, everybody has a heart, are in contrast to this, but even in discrete traits there are variations.
Discrete traits are characteristics that exhibit distinct categories or values, rather than a continuous range. Examples include flower color in pea plants (such as purple or white), the presence or absence of a particular trait (like the ability to roll one's tongue), and blood type (A, B, AB, or O). These traits are often determined by single genes or specific combinations of alleles.

Some manufacturing is discrete, some continuous.
Some examples of traits that are not considered sex-linked include eye color, hair color, height, and blood type. These traits are determined by genes located on autosomal chromosomes, rather than on the sex chromosomes.
