    The correct answer is polygenic inheritance.

    Polygenetic is an example of a trait which controls more than one gene.

    Polygenetic is termed as one group of non-epistatic genes which interacts additively to influence phenotypic trait.

    A situation where a gene is identified it is called quantitative trait locus.

    These genes here are pleiotropic.
