Understanding Quantitative Traits
Height and other traits often fall on a continuum, representing quantitative traits that are influenced by multiple genes and environmental factors. This complexity leads to variable expressivity and incomplete penetrance, making it challenging to apply Mendel's simple segregation methods. Even minor genetic differences can result in significant phenotypic variations, highlighting the intricate interplay between genes and their environment.In this clip
