How is it that you have at least two genes for each trait?

I think there are two possibilities 1. A gene is the contiguious series of codons ,nothing but series of triplet codons. So as we know that an aminoacid coded by more than one codon(except Methionine and tryptophan) atleast two codon codes for each amino acids. So a trait that is in the sense of a polypeptide which made by joinig by series of aminoacids which may be coded by different codons. 2. Due to trans splicing as here two different genes are involved in synthesis of a single polypetide.
