Direct Multiple Inheritance in Object Oriented terms is the feature where one class extends/inherits the features of multiple classes.

ex: Assuming there is a class A which has method a() and class B which has method b() - Now if we need a class C that needs the features of both A and B it could be like:

public class C extends A, B {

...

}

This way it can use both the methods a() and b().

Unfortunately Java does not support direct multiple inheritance. You can achieve partial multiple inheritance using interfaces.

What is the definition of a multiple allele trait in biology and how does it impact genetic inheritance?

A multiple allele trait in biology refers to a gene that has more than two possible alleles, or versions. This can result in a wider range of phenotypes, or physical characteristics, in individuals. In genetic inheritance, multiple allele traits can lead to more complex patterns of inheritance, as the presence of different alleles can interact in various ways to determine an individual's traits.

Drawbacks of multiple inheritance in c plus plus?

There are no drawbacks to multiple inheritance if multiple inheritance is precisely what is required to achieve your goal. If there are any drawbacks then it is only because of poor design, not multiple inheritance itself. For instance, when designing classes to simulate vehicles, an amphibious vehicle would inherit the properties of both an off-road vehicle and a marine vehicle, therefore multiple inheritance would be an appropriate usage.
