In genetics, an attribute which is solely influenced by an individual's environment. Just like there are very few genes which are the only influence to some behavior or another, there are very few solely environmental traits. One example is mother tongue, however, no human baby can learn one language better than another, its just whatever language they are exposed to first that they pick up.

A multifactorial trait, a polygenic trait commonly influenced by the environment.
Which trait is most likely modified by environmental influences such as diet and lifestyle?
lifespan
When a single trait is affected by more than one gene locus this called?
Multifactorial inheritance describes the situation were more than one gene affects a single trait. Environmental factors can also contribute to the single trait.
Can exposure to ideal environmental conditions like light and nutrients reverse the genetic trait Albinism?
No, albinism is an irreversible condition.
How can enviromental factors influence a trait?
Complex traits are those that are influenced by more than one factor. The factors can be genetic or environmental.
Hereditary and environmental factors?
Hereditary and environmental factors both play roles in how an individual develops as a person. Studying identical twins who were raised apart can provide insights into whether nature or nurture is more important for a given trait.
Is skin color a quantitative trait?
It is indeed. Quantitative traits suggest that the traits are polygenic, which means that the trait is influenced by more than one gene and skin color is influenced by 3 genes (6 alleles). Skin color is also a multifactorial trait because there are also many environmental factors that change skin color, such as exposure to sunlight.
Trait which is controlled by a combination of genes plus environmental influences?
These could be polygenic genes. They can be influenced by a variety of factors in the persons life so it is difficult to know how it will turn out.
A trait that is hidden?
