Why are there 2 different variations of a trait?

Two different variations of a trait can arise due to genetic inheritance from both parents, where each parent contributes one version of the gene. Additionally, mutations can occur in the gene that leads to different variations of the trait. These variations can provide diversity within a population and may be beneficial in evolving to changing environments.


What is most likely to be the cause of discontinuous variation - genes or the environment?

Discontinuous variation is primarily caused by genes, as it results from distinct genetic factors that influence a trait. While the environment can also play a role in shaping variations, it typically leads to continuous variations rather than the distinct, non-overlapping categories seen in discontinuous variation.


What is the standard way of labeling the variations of a particular trait?

ok there is a such thing called a punnet square you can label them by putting the trait in one of those


What is a poly allelic trait?

A polyallelic trait is a trait controlled by multiple alleles (variants of a gene) at a single gene locus. This means there are more than two possible alleles that can influence the trait's expression, resulting in a range of phenotypic variations. This can lead to a complex inheritance pattern.


In humans a trait can be determined by one pair or many pairs of?

the minimum requirement is one pair but it could be more than one pair, an example can be found in human ABO blood groups. it an example of multiple alleles

What is a beneficial trait?

well, hm, i'd collect that it's a trait that is beneficial.. perhaps an attribute that will be of service to the one who posesses it. just a guess?The definition of beneficial is to be favorable or advantageous.

Is the drive to conquer anihiliate competition rule others and subjugate both environment and others a human or animal quality?

It is an animal trait and as humans are animals it is also a human trait. Only those who have a higher opinion of humans would try to deny the trait.


The different ways that a trait appears are called?

it can be big or small, large or tiny. itdoesn't matter the size, shape, or color. its still the same as it was.


What type two or more genes control a trait?

Polygenic inheritance is when two or more genes interact to control a trait. Each gene contributes to the phenotype in an additive manner, resulting in a continuous range of variations for the trait. Examples include human height and skin color.


Which type of mutation is responsible for new variations of a trait?

matation in somatic
