When more than one pair of alleles controls a trait is called?
When more than one pair of alleles controls a trait, it is called polygenic inheritance. This means that multiple genes contribute to the expression of a trait, leading to a continuous range of variation rather than distinct categories. Examples of traits controlled by polygenic inheritance include height, skin color, and intelligence.
What is one difference between single gene trait and a polygenic trait?
Polygenic traits result in more variation because so many more alleles are involved in the process of reproduction.
What is id polygenic inheritance?
Polygenic inheritance is when a group of gene pairs act together to produce a trait.
In what are there more than two possible alleles for a trait?

What is a polygenic trait-?
In genetics, a polygenic trait is a distinguishing characteristic or quality for which the phenotype (appearance) depends on alleles in multiple genes.

How many genes determine an inherited trait?
Hello there! Traits controlled by two or more genes are for example skin color and height.
