This is because phenotypes are the physical appearance. If you had brown hair and so did I, our phenotypes, would still be different.

What causes a wide range of phenotypes for some traits?

Some traits, such as eye color and hair color, have multiple alleles that control different aspects of the phenotype. Because there are multiple different possible combinations of alleles, you get a wide range of phenotypes.


Why do some human traits show a large number of phenotypes?

i don't know but i think it is because of the recessive and dominate traits.


Why do some traits exhibit a large number of phenotype?

some human traits show a large number of phenotype because the traits are controlled by many genes. The genes act together as a group to produce a single trait


Why some phenotypes are the same and other phenotypes different?

because no one in this world has the same gene.They may have similar gene,but not the same


Why do some humans show a large variety of phenotype?

Usually, traits have a large variety of phenotypes because they have a large amount of genes.


Why do some human traits such as height and hair color show large number of phenotypes?

Because these are governed by quatitative or multiple genes


What can polygenic inheritance can explain?

Polygenic inheritance is a reason for some of the variety in human appearance. Eye color, hair color and skin color are all polygenic traits. That is why there are dozens of possible eye colors instead or just two or three. The mixing of alleles from multiple genes increases the number of possible phenotypes.


How did his Mendel's novel approach contribute to his success in describing how traits are inherited?

The garden pea has a few advantages for his experiments. It has a short generation time thus he can study many pea plants at once. Also their phenotypes are very distinct - which is a bonus since the whole experiment is to observe distinctive phenotypes - would be too vague and confusing if the traits are too close alike. The phenotypes that are distinctive are by color, the growth, round/wrinkled peas etc. Mendel's experiment basically fathered genetics. He knew nothing about alleles and DNA and what not yet he was still able to show how traits are inherited. He obviously proved that traits come from alleles - that traits don't just mix and are forever lost because some traits can be recovered (Homozygous x homozygous will always give homozygous. However Heterozygous Tt x Tt can recover the recessive trait, tt).

Do all traits exhibit exhibit classic Mendelian inheritance?

No, not all traits exhibit classic Mendelian inheritance. Many traits are influenced by multiple genes and environmental factors, leading to more complex inheritance patterns. Additionally, traits such as height, skin color, and intelligence are polygenic and multifactorial in nature, meaning they are influenced by multiple genes and environmental factors.


What are some traits of a marbled god wit?

What traits are controled by a gene with multiple alleles?

Traits controlled by a gene with multiple alleles can vary in terms of expression or phenotype. For example, human blood type (A, B, AB, O) is controlled by a gene with multiple alleles. The different alleles can result in different phenotypes (A, B, AB, O) for the same trait.
