A trait that is determined by multiple genes is referred to as a. polygenic. b. pleiotropic. c. homozygous. d. heterozygous.

This is an example of a. polygenic traits. b. pleiotropy. c. epistasis. d. random assortment. Answer: b 4. Two of the genes that affect coat color in horses are the extension gene and the cream dilution gene. The dominant E allele at the extension gene generates black coats, while the recessive e allele produces red coats. The coat color caused by the extension gene is not altered if the horse is a homozygote for the C allele at the cream dilution gene. However, if the horse is a homozygote for the C Cr allele at the cream dilution gene, it will have a white coat regardless of the extension genotype. This interaction between the extension and the cream dilution gene is an example of a. pleiotropy. b. epistasis. c. codominance. d. random assortment. Answer: b 5. Which of the following types of allele would we expect to have the lowest freque
