BIO 121 Exam 3 Questions And Answers Whole-gene The molecular level describes genetic variation as nucleotide variability. Although populations do vary in their characteristics, it is at the gene level that genetic variation can be quantified. Although species do vary in their characteristics, it is at the gene level that genetic variation can be quantified. Individuals may vary in a population, but it is at the gene level that genetic variation can be quantified. - ANS At wha...
