At least _____ genes must interact to produce a trait.
It depends. Some genes determine a single trait all by themselves. Some genes work with other genes to make a trait. It takes several separate genes to determine how tall you will be. And then there are other genes that by themselves determine multiple traits. Each gene is the code for a peptide chain. Many of those become proteins.
Coat color and pattern is a polygenic trait, meaning it is controlled by more than one gene or gene complex. A dog with the gene for black color expression may also have the gene for suppression of black and so have a red or yellow coat. Or a dog with the brindle gene may have one or more of the genes for large areas of white and so have little or no brindle coloring visible. A dog with the dominant black gene may have genes for color fading and appear gray or merle.Rate This Answer
It is what the trait does that you can see. Such as hair color and eye color
No, It is not possible. The trait Tall is always dominant over dwarf.
The two extreme variations in a are trait are favored in disruptive selection.
The least number is 2, however this is very rare. Most traits require many genes to produce a trait.
Pleiotropy.
The condition where two or more genes work together to produce a certain trait is called.
It depends on the trait. Some are Mendelian traits where there is one dominant and one recessive allele. Some traits are governed by multiple alleles, like blood groups, and some traits are governed by polygenic inheritance where several sets of genes determine the trait, like height in humans.
Polygenic genes must interact with other genes for the individual's phenotype to be decided. Height is an example of a trait influenced by polygenic inheritance.
They are located on one chromosome.
Many genes for the same trait interact to produce a continuous range of phenotypes. An incomplete dominance is a heterozygous phenotype is somewhat between the two homozygous phenotypes.
because it is awesome in that way
i don't freaking know.!
YES
hybrid has genes that are different for a trait,such as Tt
If an individual has the same genes for the same trait, he's said to be homozygous for that trait. If he has different genes for a trait, then he's heterozygous.
