What is the difference between polygenic inheritance and continuous variation?
Polygenic traits are traits that rely on multiple genes. Continuous variation describes traits whose phenotypes occur on a continuum, rather than having a limited number of possible phenotypes.

In a certain species of chicken, the trait for color is codominant. If a chicken carries the allele for black and the allele for white, what would their phenotype be?
A dominant allele is an allele that shows the effect even if the individual has only one copy of this allele. If alleles are codominant, both alleles affect the phenotype...

Detail the Polygenic Hypothesis for the inheritance of Quantitative Traits.
According to this hypothesis, several genes affect the development of the particular quantitative traits. Each allele of these genes makes its contribution to the value of trait.

Explain the difference between a continuous trait and a discontinuous trait. Give two examples of each. Are quantitative traits likely to be continuous or discontinuous? Explain why
Continuous trait is where the different types of variations are distributed on a continuum example height, skin color while discontinuous trait is where the different types of variations are placed...

There is a papillary pattern on the skin of the finger, but it is not on the skin of the face. What features of the structure of the skin can explain this?
The dermis is the layer of skin beneath the epidermis that consists of connective tissue and cushions the body from stress and strain. The dermis provides tensile strength and elasticity...
