Choose a trait that goes beyond Mendel’s one trait inheritance. Discuss the inheritance (ex. Incomplete dominance, multiple alle

le, polygenic, pleiotrophy, linkage, environmental influences), the different phenotypes or anything else that deviates from simple genetics. Mendel got lucky with the traits he chose in his pea plants. If he got more complicated traits and inheritance it would have made his findings almost impossible to come to. Talk about how these traits would have made it hard for scientists like Mendel to figure out inheritance the way he did

Answer:

Height

Explanation:

Height is polygenic trait which means that is controlled by more than one gene. This is different than Mendelian genetics in which one gene controls one trait-monogenic trait (e.g. flower color). Expressed phenotype of polygenic trairs is mix of all genes that control it (each gene has the same influence on phenotype) and it can express range of possible phenotypes (not only tall ad short but alos something in between).

This type of inheritance is known as polygenic inheritance or quantitative inheritance.

Traits that are also polygenic are skin and hair color, intelligence etc.

zepelin [54]

Hypoxia is the state which oxygen is not available in sufficient quantities at a tissue level in the body to maintain the homeostasis. The graph shows the concentration of this condition in Long Island Spund from 91 through 09 in mg/L, showinng in the data that the west area of the region has more cases os hypoxia than the east. Therefore, between the options the one that is a true statement about how well oxygenated to support marine life the region was during that period is the letter C. most years, the water near New York has inadequate oxygen to support marne life.

vovangra [49]
Given the age of the meteorite is 4.5 billion years old with 78 atoms of lead-206 the answer should be B. 156. The half-life of uranium-238 in order to decay into lead-206 is 4.46 billion years, which means that the original number of atoms is 156.
