Variation refers to the differences in the characters or traits among the individuals of a species.

Variations are beneficial to the species because:

  1. They enable the organisms to adapt themselves in changing environment.
  2. Variations form the basis of heredity.
  3. They form the raw materials for evolution and development of new species.
