Answer:

The correct answer is "each of the MHC genes has a large number of alleles, but each individual only inherits two for each gene".

Explanation:

However, this does not mean that among humans, there are only two different alleles for each gene. The major histocompatibility (MHC) genes are a clear example of this, since there are multiple combinations for each MHC class. For instance, there are 40 very similar alleles only for the HLA-B27 subtype.
