Identity formation, also known as individuation, is the development of the distinct personality of an individual[1] regarded as a persisting entity (known as personal continuity) in a particular stage of life in which individual characteristics are possessed and by which a person is recognized or known (such as the establishment of a reputation). This process defines individuals to others and themselves. Pieces of the person's actual identity include a sense of continuity, a sense of uniqueness from others, and a sense of affiliation. Identity formation leads to a number of issues of personal identity and an identity where the individual has some sort of comprehension of themselves as a discrete and separate entity. This may be through individuation whereby the undifferentiated individual tends to become unique, or undergoes stages through which differentiated facets of a person's life tend toward becoming a more indivisible whole.[citation needed]

Identity is often described as finite and consisting of separate and distinct parts (family, cultural, personal, professional, etc.), yet according to Parker J. Palmer, it is an ever-evolving core within where our genetics (biology), culture, loved ones, those we cared for, people who have harmed us and people we have harmed, the deeds done (good and ill) to self and others, experiences lived, and choices made come together to form who we are at this moment.[2]

there is usually differences in peoples appearances or the usual difference in living organisms .differences comes in with what is called gene .genes are the instruments responsible for variations in the body of people  that enables one to produce the same organism as him

a human being cannot give birth to a lion simply because of what we call the gene .genes are have special things known as the DNA  this have a special code that replicates in the young one during the formation of the young one .the DNA dictates the variations in the body make up of different organisms .

without the genes all organisms would look the same without any physical or mental variations
