Answer:

height is a polygenic trait in humans

Explanation:

Height in pea plant is controlled by two alleles of a single gene. So, height in pea plant exhibits discontinuous variations and is present in distinct phenotypic categories (tall or short). On the other hand, height in humans is controlled by more than one gene. This trait is polygenic. The phenotype of an individual depends on sum total of dominant alleles of all the genes that control height. Therefore, height in humans exhibits continuous variations.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

If you have ever seen a punnett square, you should know already that usually, they have 4 (or more) little boxes with two of the same letter. (ex. EE, ee, or Ee in every box). This predicts what the genotype of the offspring would be, based on the parents' genotypes. Pedigree charts track inherited traits, whether that be a disease or health.
