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.

This chemical is absorbed through the skin and lining of the mucosa of the nose and mouth, or in the lungs by prior inhalation. Nicotine can quickly reach the bloodstream and brain and reach maximum levels. The action of smoking cigarettes causes nicotine to reach the brain in just 10 seconds after inhalation. Although the acute effects dissipate in a few minutes, they cause the need to continue the intake of the substance (addiction)
