The right answer is a polygenic trait.

A polygenic trait is a character that results from the expression of several genes. For example, in humans, size is a polygenic trait.

Some diseases such as chronic diseases and cancers are polygenic in nature, ie several genes are involved for the disease to express itself (or not).

As a science student how to explain the cell division of non-science student ​
zhenek [66]

Explanation:

Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells. Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle. In eukaryotes, there are two distinct types of cell division: a vegetative division, whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the parent cell (mitosis), and a reproductive cell division, whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half to produce haploid gametes (meiosis).

Why are genetic variation and selective breeding are advantages of sexual reproduction?
soldier1979 [14.2K]
The evolution of sexual reproduction is a great puzzle in modern evolutionary biology. Many groups of eukaryotic organisms, especially most animals and plants, reproduce sexually. The evolution of sex between two organisms of the same species contains two related but different themes: its origin and its maintenance. However, since hypotheses for the origin of sex are difficult to test experimentally, most of the current work has focused on the maintenance of sexual reproduction. Biologists, including W. D. Hamilton, Alexei Kondrashov, and George C. Williams, have proposed various explanations for how sexual reproduction is maintained in a large set of different living things.
