    D. Variations in genes

    Oh, and here's an explanation:

    Genes determine the traits of an organism, can't be B because the organism's DNA is based off of both parents (or 100% of a parent if it's asexual). Can't be A or C because those two have to do with how mixtures and compounds form.
