No, actually many traits such as intelligence, height and skin color are polygeneic, meaning they are determined by more than one genes, so they don't come from one gene from both parents. And further going against the statement, TDF (Testis determining factor) is found only on the holandric part (non-homologous) of the Y chromosome, so that gene is only coming from one parent (the father).

WHAT is single gene trait?

A single gene trait is a specific characteristic or phenotype that is influenced by the expression of a single gene. This means that the presence or absence of a particular trait is determined by variations in one specific gene. Examples include earlobe attachment, hair color, and tongue rolling.


What is one difference between single gene trait and a polygenic trait?

Polygenic traits result in more variation because so many more alleles are involved in the process of reproduction.


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.


Can a single gene control a sigle trait?

Its possible. A single gene defines a single protein.


What is the likelihood that the offspring of individuals IV-3 and IV-4 will inherit the trait?

The likelihood that the offspring of individuals IV-3 and IV-4 will inherit the trait depends on the specific genetic inheritance pattern of the trait. If the trait is determined by a dominant gene, there is a 50 chance that the offspring will inherit the trait. If the trait is determined by a recessive gene, there is a 25 chance that the offspring will inherit the trait.

What is a trait that is expressed even if only one gene for that form of the trait is inherited?

It is a dominant trait. You only need one gene of a dominant trait for that trait to be expressed. You need two copies of the recessive trait in order for the trait to be expressed.

How many genes does an offspring receive from each parent for a trait?

An offspring typically receives one copy of a gene for a trait from each parent, resulting in two copies of the gene in total. This is known as Mendelian inheritance, where an offspring inherits one allele from the mother and one allele from the father for a specific trait.
