What is monohybrid inheritance?

Monohybrid inheritance is where an individual inherits a characteristic which is determined by a single gene with two alleles. For Example: coat color in specific mice is determined by one coat color gene with two alleles B ( black fur) and b ( for brown fur) As you can see one is dominant (B) and one is recessive (b).


Mendel wanted to find out if the pattern of inheritance for one trait affected the pattern of inheritance for another. What experiment did he perform to test this idea?

(Apex Learning) He tested seed color and shape at the same time.

What would be your clue that a character would have polygenic inheritance pattern?

Polygenic inheritance shows a continuous variation. An example of polygenic inheritance is human skin because it has a variety of colors. An example of something not having polygenic phenotype is earlobes because they are either free or attached; there is no in-between state.
