The give scenario is physiological traits.

Explanation:

This is a physiological trait because it directly correlates with the definition of a physiological trait. Physiological means relating to the way an organism's bodily functions work. Here, the trait is related to the working of a person's tasting receptors and taste buds and how they relate to the taste of substances and foods felt by a person.

Since, the broccoli tasting severely bitter to a person is directly related to the working of the person's taste bus and how an extra number of them leads to an extra dimension added to the taste, making the trait physiological in nature.
