Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Polygenic inheritance involves the contribution of multiple genes to a phenotype, resulting in continuous variation rather than discrete categories. Multiple-allele series refer to the existence of more than two alleles for a given gene in a population. Pleiotropy occurs when a single gene influences multiple phenotypic traits. These all represent deviations from Mendelian genetics, making choice D the correct answer.
