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 is a mendelian trait?
A trait controlled by many genes
What is one difference between a single gene trait and a polygenic trait?
Multiple alleles are "the existence of more than two alleles (versions of the gene) for a genetic traits. Polygenic traits are "[characteristics of organisms that are] influenced by several genes." So multiple alleles are more than two alleles for one trait, and polygenic traits are one trait that is influenced by mulitple genes. This information came from my biology textbook, "Biology: Principles and Explorations" by Holt, Rinehart, and Winston.
What are non-mendelian trait?
Non-Mendelian traits are:A trait with no clearly dominant alleleA trait with four allelesA trait controlled by many genes
An organismwith two like genes for a triat is called what for that trait?
An organism with two like genes for a trait is called homozygous for that trait.
What controls a polygenic trait?
two or more genes
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.
Multiple gene or polygenic inheritance occurs when two or more genes code for a single trait?
Polygenic inheritance occurs when a trait is controlled by two or more genes. Each gene contributes a small amount to the phenotype of the trait, resulting in a continuous range of phenotypic variations.
Which is a mendelian trait?
A trait controlled by many genes
Traits controlled by two or more genes are?
Hello there! Traits controlled by two or more genes are for example skin color and height.

Based on his experiments Mendel concluded that each trait was controlled by two?
invisible "factors" - now called genes.
What trait is is expressed when two diffrent genes for the same trait are present?
A dominant trait is expressed when two different genes for the same trait are present.
The two or more related genes that control a trait are known as?
alleles
An organismwith two like genes for a triat is called what for that trait?
An organism with two like genes for a trait is called homozygous for that trait.
For each trait there are allele possibilities?
Yes, that is correct. Each trait is controlled by genes, and genes exist in different forms called alleles. For any given trait, an individual can have two alleles—one inherited from their mother and one from their father. These alleles can have different variations, resulting in different expression of the trait.
