The inheritance of skin color genes is polygenic, meaning that many different genes are inherited and none are dominant, but rather they all work together to create a special blend of genes that you have. This is also influenced by environmental factors such as exposure to sun and similar.

Human skin color is a polygenic trait, which means that multiple gene loci are involved in its expression. It has been shown that there more than 350 genetic loci involved in determining skin color. Because of that, there is the enormous number of possible genotypes for the skin color and as a result, the phenotypes vary from the darkest brown to the lightest hues. Different populations have different allele frequencies of genes for human skin color, and the combination of these allele variations brings about complex and continuous variation in skin coloration. Natural skin color can change due to exposure to sunlight (becomes darker) and that is the way it adapts to intense sunlight irradiation (protection against the UV exposure).

sues, h.d., and reisz, r.r., 1998, origins and early evolution of herbivory in tetrapods: trends in ecology
Nina [5.8K]

Origins and early evolution of herbivory in tetrapod's About 300 million years ago, in the Late Carboniferous, the first herbivorous tetrapod's evolved. By the Late Permian, continental ecosystems of `modern' character had been formed, with a massive standing crop of herbivores sustaining relatively few predators. In order to process high-fiber plant material, it is necessary to make anatomical changes to the jaw, digestive system, and dentition as well as to acquire microbial endosymbionts that can create the enzymes required for fermentative digestion of cellulose, the main component of plant cell walls. Recent tetrapod phylogenetic studies show that several lineages separately developed endosymbiotic cellulitis throughout the late Paleozoic.

What is tetrapod's?

Animals classified as Sarcopterygii include tetrapod's. Tetrapod's, which include hawks, frogs, and turtles, are land-dwelling creatures. Along with such, there are marine creatures including sea lions, whales, sea snakes, seals, dolphins, and sea turtles.
