Answer:

Polygenic inheritance

Explanation:

When multiple genes present at different loci on chromosomes regulate a single genetic trait, the trait is said to be polygenic and the inheritance is a polygenic inheritance. The phenotype of the individual is regulated by an allele of each gene in an additive manner. The sum total of phenotypic effects of each allele of all the genes determines the final phenotype of the individuals.

These traits not present in discrete contrasting pairs (such as tall and short) but exhibit quantitative variations. For example, skin color in humans is regulated by multiple genes and the phenotype of the individual ranges from very light to very dark with many intermediates in between.

reasons why we can conclude that the rise of the water in the glass tube is due to root pressure and not transpiration or capill
ycow [4]
The transpiration pull is just one of the mechanisms that explain the movement or translocation of water in plants, particularly water ascent in tall trees. There is no single exacting explanation as yet for the ascent of water but several theories have been proposed. Of these, the one which has gained wide support is the cohesion-tension theory which recognizes the crucial role of<span> transpiration pull</span><span> as a driving force. These theories are briefly described below.. I dont know maybe this might be helpful</span>
