Ikramova Surayyo Khakimovna , Associate Professor of the Department of Medical and Biological Chemistry, Medical Biology and Genetics. Tashkent State Medical University (Tashkent), UzbekistanAbstract
This article examines the theoretical and applied aspects of phenotypic variability as a fundamental phenomenon in medical biology. Phenotypic variability is defined as the totality of morphological, physiological, biochemical, and behavioral differences between organisms, arising under the influence of genotype, environmental conditions, and their interactions. It is emphasized that the phenotype is the final manifestation of the organism's hereditary program, modified by a wide range of factors—epigenetic mechanisms, mutations, nutritional conditions, physical activity level, stress, diseases, and environmental conditions.
