Multiple alleles means that for a specific locus on a chromosome there can be 3 or more forms of that gene (allele). Only one allele can be inherited because they are found on homologous chromosomes. Height is not a multiple allele because it is associated with many genes on several chromosomes (plus environmental factors) so this would be polygenic inheritance.
Multiple allele trait is the ABO group. The allele for A B or O (3 alleles ) is found on the same locus, therefore only one of them could be inherited
EXAMPLE: DNA
The colour of wheat seeds, or skin colour are common examples used in text books.
Because Tacos are good
heredity and genetics
That depends on the gene: some genes have only a few alleles, some genes have hundreds or even thousands of alleles.
Blood type in humans is an example of multiple alleles.
The colour of wheat seeds, or skin colour are common examples used in text books.
Because both factors are present; when we talk about blood types, we have 2 individuals with 2 different blood types and they become codominant within the reproduction; meaning, there is a set of alleles and both of them show in the phenotype.
That depends on the gene: some genes have only a few alleles, some genes have hundreds or even thousands of alleles.
alleles that everyone has
Examples of non-alleles include: species of organisms, such as humans or dogs, non-genetic factors like temperature or humidity, and non-inheritable traits like acquired characteristics through environmental exposure.
This phenomenon is known as multiple allelism, where there are more than two different variations of a gene (alleles) that can affect a single trait. In this case, individuals can inherit one of several possible alleles for the trait. Examples include the ABO blood group system in humans, where there are three alleles (IA, IB, i) that determine a person's blood type.
An example of multiple alleles is the ABO blood system in humans, where the gene for blood type has three alleles: A, B, and O. Each person inherits two of these alleles, resulting in four possible blood types: A, B, AB, and O.
