How many genes determine an inherited trait?

An inherited trait is typically determined by multiple genes working together. The exact number of genes involved can vary depending on the trait. In many cases, dozens to hundreds of genes may contribute to a single inherited trait.


Which of the following are true. 1.single gene can control a single trait 2.single gene can influence multiple traits 3.single trait can be controlled by multiple genes?

A single gene can influence multiple traits A single trait can be controlled by multiple genes


If an animal with 2 dominant genes for a trait has offspring with an animal with 2 recessive genes for same trait their offspring can only have what?

Their offspring will have dominant genes. However, if these offspring have offspring with an amimal with recessive genes, the recessive genes will show up.


What is a trait that is not expressed when an organism receives genes for 2 different forms of a trait?

A trait that is not expressed when another is present is referred to as a recessive trait.


What is polygenes?

Polygenic inheritance is when a single trait is controlled by 2 or more sets of alleles.A polygenic trait is one whose phenotype is influenced by more than one gene.

codominance


What are genes with three or more alleles called?

this makes no scientific sense. A gene (which determines a phenotypic trait) can only contain 2 alleles. However codominace allows for multiple alleles to be chosen from, but only 2 picked for a gene. Also, if multiple genes determine a phenotypic trait that's polygenic inheritance.
