Answer:

B.  Multiple allele means more than two forms of the same gene in the population and polygenic inheritance means more than one gene contributes to the phenotype of a trait.

Explanation:

  • Multiple alleles are an alternative form of allies and can occupy the same gene ad only two of them can be found in the same organism. Such as the ABO blood group.  
  • A polygenic or a multiple gene inheritance is a hypothetical gene that s often difficult to characterize and traits control a multiple of genetic loci, they are relatively small and interchangeable.

The skin has only 2 layers—epidermis and dermis. Hypodermis, if that’s what you have in mind as the third, isn’t considered part of the skin.

The epidermis is a barrier to infection, trauma, and water loss (dehydration); it’s important to our social interactions; and it’s the body’s largest sense organ. The dermis provides toughness and resistance to mechanical stress; provides blood vessels that come close to the epidermis and nourish it (but don’t enter it); contains a variety of sensory receptors for touch, heat, cold, pressure, and vibration; and is an arena of immune defense in which white blood cells can rally at a site of infection and fight off intruders.

What causes waves???
worty [1.4K]

Waves are most commonly caused by wind. Wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. As wind blows across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave crest. The gravitational pull of the sun and moon on the earth also causes waves.
