Answer the following question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Many human traits are controlled by more than one gene. These traits are called polygenic traits (or characteristics). The alleles of each gene have a minor additive effect on the phenotype. There are many possible combinations of alleles, especially if each gene has multiple alleles. Therefore, a whole continuum of phenotypes is possible. Q: What human traits are controlled by more than one gene? Choices: - mutant traits - autolysis traits - maladaptive traits - polygenic traits A:
Answer:
polygenic traits
