yes its called pleiotropy
What else can I help you with?
What is it called when three or more contrasting genes control a 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.
What kind of trait is present when many different genes different genes control a single trait such as skin color?
epistasis
What kind of trait is present when many different genes control a single a single trait such as skin color?
epistasis
What kind of trait us present when many different genes control a single trait such as skin color?
When many different genes control a single trait, such as skin color, it is referred to as a polygenic trait. This means that multiple genes contribute to the phenotype, resulting in a continuous range of variation rather than distinct categories. Polygenic inheritance often leads to complex traits that can be influenced by environmental factors as well.
What kind of trait is present when many different genes control a single trait such as?
When many different genes control a single trait, it is referred to as a polygenic trait. These traits exhibit a continuous range of phenotypes, such as height or skin color, rather than discrete categories. The combined effects of multiple alleles contribute to the variation observed in the trait, leading to a more complex inheritance pattern. This trait's expression can also be influenced by environmental factors, further complicating its genetic basis.
Which of the following are true. 1.single gene can control a single trait 2.single gene can influence multiple traits 3.single trait can be controlled by multiple genes?
A single gene can influence multiple traits A single trait can be controlled by multiple genes
What kind of trait is present when many different genes control a single trait?
When many different genes control a single trait, this is referred to as polygenic inheritance. Traits influenced by multiple genes often exhibit continuous variation and can show a range of phenotypes, such as height or skin color in humans. This complex interaction among multiple genes leads to a more diverse expression of the trait compared to traits controlled by a single gene.
Can a single trait can be controlled by multiple genes.?
Yes
Can a single trait controlled by multiple genes?
Yes
What is it called when three or more contrasting genes control a 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.
What kind of trait is present when many different genes control a single trait such as 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.
What kind of trait is present when many different genes different genes control a single trait such as skin color?
epistasis
What kind of trait is present when many different genes control a single a single trait such as skin color?
epistasis
What kind of trait is present when many different genes control a single trait as a skin color?
polygenic
Can a single gene control a single trait?
It was once believed that one gene controls one trait, so it is possible. Currently, the belief is that one gene can interact with other genes to control a trait, and that one gene can control more than one trait.
What kind of trait is present when many different genes control a single trait such as?
When many different genes control a single trait, it is referred to as a polygenic trait. These traits exhibit a continuous range of phenotypes, such as height or skin color, rather than discrete categories. The combined effects of multiple alleles contribute to the variation observed in the trait, leading to a more complex inheritance pattern. This trait's expression can also be influenced by environmental factors, further complicating its genetic basis.
Is the trait for fur color a single gen trait or a polygenic trait?
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).
