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.

What is it called when more than one set of genes controls a trait?
yes it could......... when it happens its called polygenic inheritance
Is a big penis homozygous recessive or dominant?
It's not really homozygous recessive or dominant. It is actually Polygenic Inheritance. For example, your mum is aabbcc and that means 6cm, and AABBCC is 12cm, AaBbCc would mean 9cm, as you only get half of each.
What is called when the presence of two different alleles results in an intermidiate phenotype?
A)Polygenic Inheritance B) Multiple AllelesC)Incomplete Dominance D) Sex-Linked GenesThe answer is C = incomplete dominancePOSTED BYLexi Garcia Velasquez
What is the type of inheritance that would suggest the concept of blending?
Blending inheritance is inheritance in which contrasting parental characters appear as a blend in the offspring.
What is an example of polygenetic inheritance?
Coat color and pattern is a polygenic trait, meaning it is controlled by more than one gene or gene complex. A dog with the gene for black color expression may also have the gene for suppression of black and so have a red or yellow coat. Or a dog with the brindle gene may have one or more of the genes for large areas of white and so have little or no brindle coloring visible. A dog with the dominant black gene may have genes for color fading and appear gray or merle.
What is a trait or genetic disorder caused by Polygenic inheritance?
A polygenic trait is a trait which multiple genes affect. An example would be skin color, the combined affects of several genes determine your base pigment shade. Polygenic traits are caused by a combination of genes.

What type of graph would represents a polygenic trait?
A bell curve shaped graph
Which book is better in the inheritance cycle?
my personal favorite would be Eldest or Inheritance
What is inheritance tax limits?
Inheritance tax limits are basically limits of tax that the company has to pay from the inheritance of the dead. This would then regulate the inheritance rate from the life insurance.

Blending inheritance is inheritance in which contrasting parental characters appear as a blend in the offspring.
Why blending inheritance is an incorrect hypothesis?
because in order for blending inheritance to occur, all variation would have to be diluted out

Can the estranged husband make a claim against the future inheritance of his wife in her deceased fathers estate?
United StatesNo. He is not an heir of his father-in-law and he would have no legal claim to his wife's inheritance from her father. In addition, generally a person cannot make a claim against a "future inheritance" of another individual. An inheritance is not a reality until the testator has died.United StatesNo. He is not an heir of his father-in-law and he would have no legal claim to his wife's inheritance from her father.

What are ways in which natural selection operates on ploygenic traits?
Polygenic? Natural selection usually acts on the phenotype of polygenic traits as they are suites of genes acting in concert to form a trait. If you had a trait, such as height, in two variant brothers then the aggregate would need to be selected for as the genes working in concert, but not equally well, would render different heights in the brothers which would be then visible to natural selection.
