Polygenic inheritance includes traits coming from one source. Mendel described traits as dominant or recessive and that determination created the charts determining the offspring outcome.
Some common genetic inheritance patterns include autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, and X-linked recessive. These patterns describe how traits are passed down from parents to offspring.
Epigenetics, incomplete dominance, co-dominance, multiple alleles, polygenic traits, and gene linkage are examples of non-Mendelian principles that extend beyond classical Mendelian genetics. These factors can affect inheritance patterns and phenotypes in ways that do not strictly adhere to Mendel's laws of inheritance.
No, hair color is typically determined by multiple genes and can exhibit various inheritance patterns, such as incomplete dominance, codominance, or polygenic inheritance. Incomplete dominance refers to a situation where neither allele is completely dominant over the other, resulting in an intermediate phenotype.

Inheritance patterns are the predictable patterns seen in the transmission of genes from one generation to the next.

Mendelian genetics follows predictable patterns of inheritance based on dominant and recessive alleles, while non-Mendelian genetics involves more complex inheritance patterns such as incomplete dominance, codominance, and polygenic inheritance. Mendelian genetics is based on the principles discovered by Gregor Mendel, while non-Mendelian genetics includes variations that do not strictly follow Mendel's laws.
polygenic inheritance is when more than one genes are responsible for a character/phenotype. for example human skin color. if one want to draw a pedigree for that, he will not be able to succeed. although individual genes at molecular level is inherited according to mendel's laws. and mendelian inheritance simply follows mendels laws. also the character is controlled by one gene only. for example pea plant height.
Mendelian inheritance patterns follow predictable rules of inheritance, such as dominant and recessive traits, as described by Gregor Mendel. Non-Mendelian inheritance patterns involve more complex genetic interactions, like incomplete dominance or codominance, that do not strictly follow Mendel's laws.
Mendelian genetics follow predictable inheritance patterns based on dominant and recessive traits, while non-Mendelian genetics involve more complex inheritance patterns such as incomplete dominance, codominance, and polygenic traits. Mendelian traits are controlled by a single gene, while non-Mendelian traits may involve multiple genes or environmental factors.
Non-Mendelian traits are characteristics that do not follow the typical patterns of inheritance described by Gregor Mendel. Examples include traits controlled by multiple genes (polygenic traits), traits influenced by environmental factors, and traits with incomplete dominance or codominance. These traits may exhibit more complex inheritance patterns than the simple dominant and recessive traits outlined by Mendel.

Multiple alleles are "the existence of more than two alleles (versions of the gene) for a genetic traits. Polygenic traits are "[characteristics of organisms that are] influenced by several genes." So multiple alleles are more than two alleles for one trait, and polygenic traits are one trait that is influenced by mulitple genes.
