Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Multiple-factor inheritance, also known as polygenic inheritance, involves the interaction of multiple genes to produce a phenotype. This often results in a continuous range of phenotypes, leading to a bell-shaped distribution when these phenotypes are plotted, as each gene contributes a small amount to the variation in the phenotype.
