NCERT Exampler

These variants are called biotypes. All biotypes are similar genetically but they are different morphologically. The morphological difference happens because of the differences in abiotic factors like temperature, pH of soil, climate etc. The difference in abiotic factors is the result of different altitudinal gradients.
