Total phenotypic variance can be broken down into all but one of which of the following components?
A)Genetic-environment interaction variance
B)Genetic variance
C)Environmental variance
D)Heritability
E)Genic interaction variance

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Total phenotypic variance can be broken down into three components: genetic variance, environmental variance, and the variance due to their interaction (genetic-environment interaction variance). Heritability is not one of the components of total phenotypic variance but is a measure of the proportion of phenotypic variance that is due to genetic factors.
