What else can I help you with?
For each trait there are allele possibilities?
Yes, that is correct. Each trait is controlled by genes, and genes exist in different forms called alleles. For any given trait, an individual can have two alleles—one inherited from their mother and one from their father. These alleles can have different variations, resulting in different expression of the trait.
A single individual carries how many alleles for a trait?
It depends on the trait. Some traits are controlled by several alleles. Some traits are simply one of many controlled by a single allele. It also depends and how you correlate the trait with the allele. Sometimes a completely unrelated allele can "turn on" or "turn off" other sets of alleles. This means that the number of alleles associated with a particular trait can ultimately be indeterminable by our current observational methods.
When more than one pair of alleles controls a trait is called?
When more than one pair of alleles controls a trait, it is called polygenic inheritance. This means that multiple genes contribute to the expression of a trait, leading to a continuous range of variation rather than distinct categories. Examples of traits controlled by polygenic inheritance include height, skin color, and intelligence.
How many alleles for 1 trait do you get from your mother?
You get one allele for 1 trait from your mother. Alleles are alternative forms of a gene, and you inherit one allele for each trait from each parent.
What is the difference between a gene allele Chromosome and trait?
Alleles are alternate versions of genes that code for certain phenotypes, or traits. The traits of an individual are a result of the interaction between their genotype (alleles) and the environment.
For each trait there are allele possibilities?
Yes, that is correct. Each trait is controlled by genes, and genes exist in different forms called alleles. For any given trait, an individual can have two alleles—one inherited from their mother and one from their father. These alleles can have different variations, resulting in different expression of the trait.
Which is a mendelian trait?
A trait controlled by many genes
Which two combinations of allels could produce a trait controlled by a dominant allele?
with TT or Tt
What are non-mendelian trait?
Non-Mendelian traits are:A trait with no clearly dominant alleleA trait with four allelesA trait controlled by many genes
What is a trait controlled by a single gene that has two alleles?
One example of a trait controlled by a single gene with two alleles is flower color in snapdragons. The gene responsible for flower color has two alleles: one for red flowers and one for white flowers.
A single individual carries how many alleles for a trait?
It depends on the trait. Some traits are controlled by several alleles. Some traits are simply one of many controlled by a single allele. It also depends and how you correlate the trait with the allele. Sometimes a completely unrelated allele can "turn on" or "turn off" other sets of alleles.

Examples of traits controlled by polygenic inheritance include height, skin color, and intelligence.
A characteristic controlled by one or more genes is called a?
trait
Organisms that has two different alleles for a trait?
An organism with two different alleles for a trait is said to be heterozygous for that trait. This means that it has one dominant allele and one recessive allele. The dominant allele will usually determine the organism's phenotype for that trait.
How many alleles for one trait can an individual have?
An individual can have a maximum of two alleles for one trait, as they inherit one allele from each parent. These alleles can be the same (homozygous) or different (heterozygous) for a specific trait.
How do you know a homozygous trait from a heterozygous trait?
A homozygous trait occurs when an individual has two identical alleles for a particular gene, either both dominant or both recessive. In contrast, a heterozygous trait occurs when an individual has two different alleles for a particular gene, one dominant and one recessive. This can be determined through genetic testing or by observing the offspring of the individual.
How many alleles for one trait are normally found in the genotype of an organism?
An organism has two alleles for one trait. If the two alleles are the same, the individual is homozygous for that trait, and if they are different, the individual is heterozygous.
