What is it called when three or more contrasting genes control a trait?
Polygenic
What led to scientists accepting Mendels ideas?

Which type of inheritance involves genes found on the non-autosomal chromosomes?
These are called sex linked genes since they are on the genes that code for sex.
What are Mendel's factors today called?
For him they were just discrete physical units of inheritance. Johanson coined the term "gene" and people started calling them genes. Today for us these factors are parts of DNA, the base sequences that carry the biological information to determine a trait. Mendel factors are alleles of genes.
