Because these are governed by quatitative or multiple genes

Why do human traits such as height and skin color have different phenotype?

This is because phenotypes are the physical appearance. If you had brown hair and so did I, our phenotypes, would still be different.


Visible characteristics are called?

Visible characteristics are referred to as phenotypes. These traits include physical features such as hair color, eye color, and height, which are determined by a person's genotype and influenced by environmental factors.


What best describes phenotypes?

traits. your welcome! yall lil cheaters! lol (:


What is a example of phenotypes?

A phenotype (from Greek phainein to 'show' + typos 'type') is an organism's observable characteristics or traits: such as its morphology, development, biochemical or physiological properties, behavior, and products of behavior (such as a bird's nest). Simple examples include hair color, eye color, height, pelt color.


What can polygenic inheritance can explain?

Polygenic inheritance is a reason for some of the variety in human appearance. Eye color, hair color and skin color are all polygenic traits. That is why there are dozens of possible eye colors instead or just two or three. The mixing of alleles from multiple genes increases the number of possible phenotypes.


What causes a wide range of phenotypes for some traits?

Some traits, such as eye color and hair color, have multiple alleles that control different aspects of the phenotype. Because there are multiple different possible combinations of alleles, you get a wide range of phenotypes.


Physical characteristics of organisms are called?

Physical characteristics of organisms are called phenotypes. These traits are the observable characteristics of an organism, such as its color, size, shape, and behavior. Phenotypes are the result of an organism's genetic makeup interacting with its environment.


Why do human traits such as height and skin color show a large number of phenotype?

it is because they have genes


Are height and skin color enviormental traits?

Only in long term adjustments (selection).


Physical traits include?

Physiological traits can be- intelligence, personality, or emotional adjustment.


Which type of traits vary quantitatively due to the interaction of multiple genes?

Quantitative traits, also known as polygenic traits, vary due to the cumulative effects of multiple genes interacting with each other and the environment. Examples include height, skin color, and intelligence, where a range of phenotypes is produced rather than distinct categories. These traits are typically influenced by additive genetic effects, where the contributions of individual alleles combine to produce a continuous distribution of phenotypes.


The outward appearance of a particular trait is called?

The outward expression of genetic traits are called phenotypes. Phenotypes expression include recessive and dominant genes such as eye and hair color.
