Human height is a polygenic trait, meaning it is influenced by multiple genes rather than just one. This leads to a continuous range of heights in the population rather than distinct discrete variations, making it more complex than the simple dominance and recessiveness seen in Mendel's pea plant experiments. Additionally, environmental factors such as nutrition and lifestyle can also influence human height, further complicating its inheritance pattern.
It's not. It's just that diet can modify height as much as genes.
although its genetic its traits arent the offspring of the parent generation.
Gene linkage us considered an exception to Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment.
Its an exception because both of the alleles are expressed in heterozygotes.
X inactivation is an exception to Mendel's laws because it involves the inactivation of one of the two X chromosomes in females, allowing for dosage compensation between males and females. This process results in the random silencing of one X chromosome and the formation of Barr bodies, altering the expected patterns of inheritance predicted by Mendel's laws.

There are many traits that do not follow Mendel experiments. He was lucky in that the traits he looked at were very simple and straight forward. As far as human height, there are 2 million common genetic variants and there are 697 gene variants in 424 gene regions as related to height which have been identified. Other studies show 199 genetic variants residing in 180 genome regions.

Because it is, got a problem with it?
The exception to Mendel's law of independent assortment is when genes are located close together on the same chromosome and therefore tend to be inherited together, rather than independently assorting during meiosis. This is known as genetic linkage.
No.
It is an exception to Mendel's Laws of Inheritance and follows a pattern of co-dominance.
