Which of the following best explains variable expression in mitochondrial diseases?

a. locus heterogeneity

b. heterozygosity

c. heteroplasmy

d. modifier locie. imprintingts for a homework from genetics... If anyone knows the right answer pls write with a short explanation :) Thanks!

I am personally confused because i dont know how to think. If we take for a cause of diseases only changes in mtDNA i would say C for an answer. But mitochondrial proteins and their function is also under nuclear DNA. Please help!
