Answer:
Mainly, the number of genes that control traits.
Explanation:
Polygenic inheritance does not follow Mendel's law of dominance. According to Mendel the dominant trait will mask the recessive trait however, this is not always the case. Polygenic inheritance states that traits are controlled by two or more genes and is also dependent on the environment.
Let's take skin color for example. A fair-skinned person will have a child with a dark-skinned person.
Mendelian inheritance would assume that the offspring would either be fair or dark only.
Polygenic inheritance would assume that the offspring would be either fair, dark, or a tone in between, depending on the environment they are in as well.
Hope you understood it.
Explanation:
Muscle tissue is metabolically more dynamic and burn a larger number of calories than fat tissue. The more muscles you have, the greater your resting energy expenditure, which implies that your body burns more calories while sitting idle
The external ear structure is called the Pinna.
The Pinna helps to channel sound waves into the ear.
Many animals have the ability to move their pinna towards the direction of sound.
I have attached an image of a dog's ear to show you the external structure called the Pinna.
I hope this helps! I'm happy to answer any other questions you might have :)

Answer: 0.5
Explanation:
Number of people with traits = 900
Total number of individuals= 1800
To find the probability with regards to the question, we divide the number of individuals having the traits by the total population of individuals. This will be:
= 900 / 1800
= 0.5
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
Food chains focus on one set of organisms and their predators/prey, while food webs show multiple for each. Hope this helps. :)
