Many possible genotypes, producing ,any possible phenotypes.
Polygenic traits result in more variation because so many more alleles are involved in the process of reproduction.
A multifactorial trait, a polygenic trait commonly influenced by the environment.
It depends on the trait. Some traits exhibit simple Mendelian heredity, being governed by only one gene. However, many traits are governed by more than one gene, which is called polygenic inheritance.
Traits that are produced by the interaction of several genes are called polygenic traits. Examples of polygenic traits are height and skin color.

Polygenic inheritance is the phenotypic expression of a trait involving the interaction of many genes.
Hello there! Traits controlled by two or more genes are for example skin color and height.
When more than two alleles are involved in the inheritance of a trait, it is called polygenic inheritance. Many quantitative characters have polygenic inheritance. Inheritance of blood groups is an example of polygenic inheritance in human being.When more than two alleles are involved in the inheritance of a trait, it is called polygenic inheritance.

Yes, a single gene can affect many traits. this is called plieotropy
Usually, traits are polygenic when there is wide variation in the trait. For example, humans can be of many different sizes. Height is a polygenic trait, controlled by at least three genes with six alleles. If you are dominant for all of the alleles for height, then you will be very tall. Should help students for the year 2022. (Note: May change for upcoming years) Hope it helped!

Pleiotropy: one gene affects many traits (phenotypes) Polygenic: many genes affect one trait (phenotype)
There are many types of dwarfism. Acondroplastic dwarfism is a dominant trait. Living individuals are heterozygous for the trait as a homozygous dominant individuals have substantial skeletal anomalies that result in death in infancy.
