C с Both continuous and discontinuous variation

Answer 1

The answer would be B. Discontinuous Variation Only.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gender is discontinuous as there's only male and female. Sickle Cell/Normal is also discontinuous as you can only be one or the other. Same with blood group as there's only four types and no in-betweens.
