Answer:

Polygenetic traits

Step-by-step explanation:

Polygene are any group of nonallelic genes whose individual effect on a phenotype is too small to observe , however together they can determine a phenotypic trait.

Polygenetic traits are those traits controlled by multiple genes or polygenes

For example, skin color is determined by the number of dark alleles a person has and it takes more than three genes to determine it.
