some human traits show a large number of phenotype because the traits are controlled by many genes. The genes act together as a group to produce a single trait

not exactly sure but my best guess is that the genes act together to make a single trait so the phenotypes of the offspring is then going to be unlike the phenotypes of the parent so ya

Why are the traits Mendel studied in pea plants easy to predict?

Each trait is controlled entirely by a single gene on the chromosome. Thus their phenotype is determined only by the combination of the two genes for that trait inherited on the pair of chromosomes received one from each parent, the genotype. Many other traits are controlled in much more complex ways involving multiple interacting genes, possibly even on different chromosomes. This can make them very difficult to predict or even nearly impossible to predict in some cases. To a large degree Mendel was very lucky to have picked those specific traits to study!
