Phenotypes
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.
The factors that control a trait can include genetic influences (such as genes and alleles), environmental influences (such as diet and exposure to toxins), and the interactions between genetics and the environment. Additionally, epigenetic factors can also play a role in the regulation of gene expression and the manifestation of traits.
The trait for fur color can be both. In some species, like mice, fur color is determined by a single gene with different alleles. In other species, like dogs or humans, fur color can be controlled by multiple genes interacting together (polygenic 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.
Polygenic trait, where multiple genes contribute to the expression of a single trait like skin color. Each gene may have a small effect on the trait, and their combined influence results in a continuous range of variation.

Variations
the number of genes that usually determine a trait
epistasis
The number of possible phenotypes for a given trait depends on how many genes control the trait. Each gene may have multiple alleles that can interact to produce different phenotypes. Additionally, environmental factors can also influence the expression of these genes, further increasing the diversity of possible phenotypes.
it is because they have genes
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 telling you people unless you tell me ALL of the composite numbers.P.S you guy's are mean!
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.
When three or more contrasting genes control a trait, it is called polygenic inheritance. This type of inheritance involves multiple genes interacting to influence a single trait, resulting in a continuous distribution of phenotypes in a population.
Biologists use the term "regulator genes" for trait-controllers. These genes control the activity of other genes, influencing the development and expression of specific traits in an organism.
