There are 2 Types of genetic Inheritance.

1. Polygenic inheritance, also known as quantitative or multi-factorial inheritance refers to inheritance of a phenotypic characteristic (trait) that is attributable to two or more genes and their interaction with the environment.

Polygenic traits do not follow patterns of Mendelian inheritance (qualitative traits). Instead, their phenotypes typically vary along a continuous gradient depicted by a bell curve. Eye color and skin color are both polygenetic traits.

2. Monogenic inheritance is controlled by a single gene, as opposed to multigenic.

What is the type of inheritance that would suggest the concept of blending?

Blending inheritance suggests a type of inheritance where the traits of the parents are mixed together in the offspring, resulting in an intermediate phenotype. This concept contrasts with the idea of particulate or Mendelian inheritance, where discrete units (alleles) are passed from parents to offspring without blending.
