Why does polygenic inheritance result in a wide range of phenotypes?

0

The term “polygenic inheritance” is used to refer to the inheritance of quantitative traits, traits which are influenced by multiple genes, not just one. Polygenic inheritance shows how multiple genes in combination with a person’s environment can influence someone’s phenotype, or physical appearance. A wide range is produced because the gene combinations are vast. ChaCha!
