14. traits -are attributable to genotypic variation in a person's DNA sequence.
15. -a variation of the same sequence of nucleotides at the same place on a long DNA molecule

1. -is the process of producing individual organisms with identical genomes, either by natural or artificial means.
2. -is an allele that is almost always expressed
3. -is the set of observable characteristics or traits of an organism
5. - an organism is its complete set of genetic material
