Question

what is pleotropism,,,,,,,,,,

Answer 1

Explanation:

Pleiotropism is defined as when one gene influences multiple, unrelated phenotypic traits • Pleiotropy describes the genetic effect of a single gene on multiple phenotypic traits • Mutation in a pleiotropic gene may have an effect on some or all traits • Mechanism of pleiotropy in most cases.

Pleiotropy (from Greek πλείων pleion, "more", and τρόπος tropos, "way") occurs when one gene influences two or more seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. Such a gene that exhibits multiple phenotypic expression is called a pleiotropic gene.

Answer 2

Answer:

Pleiotropy occurs when one gene influences two or more seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. Such a gene that exhibits multiple phenotypic expression is called a pleiotropic gene. Mutation in a pleiotropic gene may have an effect on several traits simultaneously, due to the gene coding for a product used by a myriad of cells or different targets that have the same signaling function.
