Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Canalization is a genetic term referring to the limitation on the variance of expression of any given phenotype, regardless of different environmental conditions or genetic backgrounds. This means that certain traits are "canalized" to develop in a specific way, reducing the phenotypic variation in a population despite genetic and environmental differences.
