What is trait called when it is controlled by more than one gene?
Polygenic Traits
How inheritance by multiple alleles and polygenic inheritence are similar?
In both cases, traits are influenced by multiple genetic factors. Inheritance by multiple alleles involves the presence of more than two alleles for a particular gene, while polygenic inheritance involves the contribution of multiple genes to a single trait. Both types of inheritance result in continuous variation, with traits being influenced by the interaction of multiple genetic factors.
What is the opposite of polygenic trais?
The opposite of polygenic traits is monogenic traits. Polygenic traits are determined by the interaction of multiple genes, while monogenic traits are controlled by a single gene.
What type two or more genes control a trait?
Polygenic inheritance is when two or more genes interact to control a trait. Each gene contributes to the phenotype in an additive manner, resulting in a continuous range of variations for the trait. Examples include human height and skin color.
Traits controlled by two or more genes are called what?
Traits controlled by two or more genes are called polygenic traits. In polygenic inheritance, multiple genes work together to produce a particular phenotype, resulting in a wide range of possible variations. Examples include height, skin color, and eye color in humans.
How genes affect characteristics?
It is a polygenic character
Is breast cancer codominant or polygenic?
POLYGENIC!
If your father-in-law leaves an inheritence to your husband are you intitled to some?
According to property laws, inheritence is considered separate property which is owned by the heir. A spouse is not entitled to inheritence.
Traits that are shaped by many genes are called what?
Traits that are produced by the interaction of several genes are called polygenic traits. Examples of polygenic traits are height and skin color.
What is trait called when it is controlled by more than one gene?
Polygenic Traits
What do you mean by inheritence?
Inheritence is somethingt that you are given. Like a gift in a way. ( Read Genesis 26 and 27)
When both alleles contribute to the phenotype it is called?
PleiotropyPleiotropy occurs when one gene influences multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits, an example being phenylketonuria, which is a human disease that affects multiple systems but is caused by one gene defect.
What is Mendelian inheritence?
Linkage
True or false height is not a polygenic trait?
false, height is a polygenic trait
What controls a polygenic trait?
two or more genes
Are polygenic genes dominant genes?
Polygenic genes are usually dominant genes.
