Human height is typically determined by polygenic inheritance, where multiple genes contribute to the phenotype, along with environmental factors. This results in a continuous range of heights in a population. This pattern of inheritance contrasts with Mendelian inheritance, where traits are controlled by a single gene.

The pattern of heredity shown in the transparency is most likely a familial inheritance pattern, where certain traits or genetic conditions are passed down through generations within a family. Examples of familial inheritance patterns include autosomal dominant or recessive inheritance, X-linked inheritance, or mitochondrial inheritance. These patterns help geneticists and researchers understand how genetic traits are transmitted from parents to offspring.

Polygenic inheritance is an inheritance pattern in which a trait is controlled by multiple genes, each with two or more alleles. This results in a continuous range of phenotypes rather than distinct categories.

Yes, achondroplasia is an example of an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. This means that only one copy of the mutated gene needs to be inherited to display the condition.

1 answer




This pattern of inheritance is called X-linked inheritance. It involves genes located on the X chromosome, leading to different inheritance patterns in males (who have one X chromosome) and females (who have two X chromosomes).

Pleiotropy is the term used to describe an inheritance pattern where a single allele affects multiple phenotypic traits. In this pattern, one gene is responsible for controlling or influencing multiple aspects of an organism's phenotype.

Human height is influenced by multiple genes, making it a polygenic trait. The pattern of inheritance is more complex than simple Mendelian traits, as height is continuously variable and influenced by environmental factors as well. This fits with the idea of polygenic inheritance.

Its a pedigree. A pedigree shows the inheritance of a genetic disorder within a family and can help to determine the inheritance pattern and whether any particular individual has an allele for that disorder.

The inheritance pattern appears to be autosomal recessive.

1 answer




Most mutations in eukaryotes exhibit a recessive inheritance pattern because they typically involve changes in a single gene, and the presence of a normal copy of the gene can often mask the effects of the mutated gene. This means that individuals with one normal and one mutated copy of the gene will not show the effects of the mutation, leading to a recessive inheritance pattern.

Skin color is determined by multiple genes with a polygenic inheritance pattern. This means that several genes contribute to skin color, and the variation in these genes leads to a wide range of skin tones in populations. This inheritance pattern allows for a continuous spectrum of colors rather than distinct categories.

The inheritance pattern of wheat grain color showing variability between red and white with multiple phenotypes is most likely controlled by multiple genes, exhibiting polygenic inheritance. This means that the trait is influenced by the combined effects of multiple genes, leading to a continuous range of phenotypes rather than distinct categories.

Inheritance syndrome is typically inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning that a mutation in one copy of the affected gene is enough to cause the syndrome. This means that an affected individual has a 50% chance of passing the syndrome on to their offspring. Rarely, inheritance syndrome can also be inherited in an autosomal recessive or X-linked pattern.

It is an exception to Mendel's Laws of Inheritance and follows a pattern of co-dominance.

The transmission of a character from father to grandson through his daughter is called criss-cross inheritance. It is also called zig-zag inheritance.

In criss-cross inheritance, the character appears in alternate generation only.

The sex linked characters exhibit criss-cross inheritance.

Eg. Haemophilia.

There are only two types of inheritance to begin with: single inheritance and multiple inheritance. Since they are mutually exclusive there is no such thing as hybrid inheritance.

1 answer


Incomplete dominance represents an inheritance pattern resulting in offspring with traits that appear to blend when parents are crossed for pure traits. In this pattern, neither trait is completely dominant over the other, leading to a mixture or intermediate phenotype in the offspring.
