Multifactorial inheritance describes the transmission of traits or diseases that are determined by –
- Inheritance of multiple diseases from the same parent.
To describe this in details that the multifactorial disease has a combination of distinctive characteristics that can be differentiated from Mendelian or sex limited conditions. The disease can occur in isolation, with affected children born to unaffected parents. Although familiar aggregation is also common, there may be multiple cases in the same family, there is no clear pattern of inheritance.
This type of disease can occurs more frequently in one gender than in the other, but it is not a sex limited trait. Further to this there Are all the chances that the first degree relatives of individuals belonging to the rarely affected gender have a higher risk of bearing the disease.

Which of the following are true of modifying and epistatic genes in regard to genetic diseases? (1) Modifying genes can account for the severity of a genetic disease Modifying genes do not completely mask genes for a genetic disease. Epistatic genes may cause a disease by masking normal genes. The expression of modifying genes can be affected by environmental factors. Select the true statements about sex influenced and sex limited traits: (circle all that apply) (2) Sex-influenced traits and sex-limited traits...
