Yes, as the gene coding for one subunit of hemoglobin is mutated so that it codes one amino acid different thus leading to sickle cell trait.
No. Height in humans is an example of polygenic inheritance.
Much of what we know about single gene traits in humans comes from studying pea plants.
Polygenic Traits.
hi
Quantitative traits can be measured. Example: Tom is 5'10" tall Qualitative traits are descriptive. Example: Susan is pretty
It depends on the trait. Some are Mendelian traits where there is one dominant and one recessive allele. Some traits are governed by multiple alleles, like blood groups, and some traits are governed by polygenic inheritance where several sets of genes determine the trait, like height in humans.
height
Skin color, height, weight
Much of what we know about single gene traits in humans comes from studying pea plants.
ABO Single gene trait blood group alleles on humans. That is the variation, not much, and not much recombination. 3! = 6. There is posited to be at least 7 alleles for height, which is a polygenic trait. Hypothetical alleles, SMYDKECV 7! = 5040 different combinations of alleles in height polygenic traits.
Single gene traits are either one type or another,for example everyone is either (ABO System) group A,B AB or O with no intermediates - this shows discontinuous variation. In polgyenic traits, continuous variation is shown and there is a range with no discrete categories - height
Dwarfism is a dominant trait in humans.
Hello there! Traits controlled by two or more genes are for example skin color and height.
Sunflowers are very beautiful flowers with many traits. Sunflowers grow to be 5 foot and taller in height for example.
Multiple alleles
Height, eye color, many behavioral traits and many single gene deleterious mutations that lead to disease, such as Huntington's disease.
Examples are body weight, height, or shape, reproductive rate, and various behaviour traits.
the example of inherited traits are mostly you can see the anatomical like skin colour, eye colour, height, hair pattern etc.
