It's potentially 3. A,B,O. Not necessarily ALL of them though, I believe.

It depends on the organism but humans have two alleles.


How many alleles are there for blood type-?

There are three alleles for blood type: IA=Blood type A IB=Blood type B i=Blood type O The alleles for blood type A and B are codominant so when someone contains the IA and IB alleles, their blood type is AB.

What are multiple allele traits?

A polygenic trait that require the additive effects of many alleles to be expressed. Height is an example of a polygenic trait. Or, a trait that has many alleles to fill the loci on chromosomes. Blood types are examples of this. A, B and O are all alleles that git the two chromosomal loci, but only any two at once whether homozygous or heterozygous.

alleles.


A single individual carries how many alleles for a trait?

It depends on the trait. Some traits are controlled by several alleles. Some traits are simply one of many controlled by a single allele. It also depends and how you correlate the trait with the allele. Sometimes a completely unrelated allele can "turn on" or "turn off" other sets of alleles. This means that the number of alleles associated with a particular trait can ultimately be indeterminable by our current observational methods.


What three ways are human traits controlled?

Human traits are controlled by a combination of genetic factors (inherited from parents), environmental factors (such as diet and lifestyle), and epigenetic factors (changes in gene expression without changes in the underlying DNA sequence). These factors interact in complex ways to influence the development and expression of human traits.
