To find a gene, you have to associate a phenotype with a genotype (e.g. all individuals with white flowers have a certain allele

). it is much harder to find genes that are involved in polygenic traits than it is to find the genes responsible for discrete traits. why? it's much more difficult to determine the dna sequence of alleles associated with polygenic traits. the alleles associated with polygenic traits are usually co-dominant. polygenic traits results from extensive gene by gene interactions, which makes finding individual genes difficult. it's harder to find one of the many genes involved in a polygenic trait vs. the only gene involved in a discrete trait..

A nurse is caring for a client with multiple myeloma. which laboratory value is the nurse most likely to see?
koban [17]

Multiple myeloma<span> is cancer that forms in your plasma cells and causes cancer cells to accumulate in the bone marrow. Plasma cells are cells which help you fight infections by making antibodies that attack germs. </span>If signs and symptoms develop like bone pain or nausea, a number of treatments can be done to help control your multiple myeloma.

A nurse caring for a client with multiple myeloma is most likely to see his blood count. Complete blood count (CBC), is done to measure the levels of red cells, white cells, and platelets in the blood. If there are too many myeloma cells in the bone marrow, the most common finding is a low red blood cell count.
