Question
skin color, fur color, and height are examples of which inheritance pattern? mendelian inheritance incomplete dominance codominance polygenic inheritance
Skin color, fur color, and height are influenced by multiple genes. Polygenic inheritance involves the interaction of multiple genes to determine a trait. Mendelian inheritance involves the inheritance patterns of single - gene traits. Codominance and incomplete dominance are patterns related to single - gene inheritance where neither allele is completely dominant or where both alleles are expressed in a heterozygote respectively. Since these traits (skin color, fur color, height) are determined by multiple genes, they are examples of polygenic inheritance.
