What are Genes that produce alternative expressions of a trait called
Brrunno [24]
The answer should be allele(s).

Alleles are alternative forms of genes. For example in eye color, there is brown eye allele that produces brown eyes or blue eye alleles that produces blue eyes. 

However, note that there may be dominant or recessive alleles. Dominant alleles are always expressed, meanwhile, recessive allele is only expressed when there is no dominant allele existing. 

An example is let say brown eye allele is dominant and blue eye allele is recessive. The eye gene is controlled by 2 alleles. If I had one brown eye allele and 1 blue, my eyes will be brown, because brown eye allele is dominant.

Extrusive igneous rocks cool from lava rapidly because they form at the surface, so they have small crystals.

Arlecino [84]
A nurse can identify possible developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) during a newborn assessment through asymmetry of the gluteal folds. Asymmetrical buttock creases can suggest hip dysplasia in infants but an ultrasound or x-ray study will need to be done to determine whether the hips are normal or not just like a hip click.
