The answer is polygenic inheritance.
Many physical characters (traits) depend on many different factors, each of which is determined by different genes. This is called polygenic inheritance.


For example, the color of the skin in humans. The color of the skin results from the interactions of several factors determined by different pairs of genes:-Certain genes could affect the metabolism of skin melanocytes.-Other genes can determine the distribution of melanin in the thickness of the skin.-Some genes could determine the relative amounts of each of the two possible types of melanin.-Others may affect the production of certain hormones involved in the activity of melanocytes.

Which of these statements is/are TRUE? Nonphototrophic organisms are able to grow at higher temperatures than phototrophic organ
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

All of the above are true.

Explanation:

The prokaryotic organisms are the unicellular primitive organism which was formed in the primitive time when the conditions on the Earth were harsh.

The prokaryotes developed the metabolism to survive in the extreme conditions and were recognised as the archaebacteria. These bacteria can tolerate extreme condition like hot temperature called thermophilic conditions. These thermophiles can grow at higher temperature conditions than the eukaryotes.

The thermophiles are non-phototrophic organism as they do not utilize the light energy to produce energy as phototrophic organisms does.

Thus, all of the true is correct.

A gene that when mutated leads to organisms with structures in abnormal places is termed select one:
zvonat [6]
Homeotic genes regulate the development of structures. Logically, then, the mutation of this gene must result in improper structure development, such as structures in abnormal places. The answer is C.
