Answer: The correct answer is- C.) several different genes control height.

As per the information given in the question, there are different plant heights in the population that is tall, short, and heights in between these two.

This indicates that this trait is controlled by many different genes ( as many different phenotype are seen in the population).

This situation corresponds to polygenic inheritance, which means that a particular characteristic of an organism is controlled by more than one two genes ( such as skin color, height in human beings)

eduard
I think the best answer from the choices would be the first option. Icebergs float in the ocean since i<span>cebergs are composed of freshwater and freshwater is less dense then salt water. The ocean contains salts which contributes to its density which most likely would be higher with that of an iceberg.</span>
