Answer
Continuous variation refers to variations that have a complete range of phenotypes within a population. These traits are typically influenced by multiple genes (polygenic inheritance) and environmental factors.
Examples include human height, skin color, and weight. Individuals can have any value within a range, rather than falling into distinct categories. This type of variation is often represented by a bell curve (normal distribution) when plotted on a graph.
