Answer 2

The right option is; C. They are controlled by more than one gene

Traits such as skin color, human height and eye colour are known as polygenic traits. These traits have wide variation throughout the human population and are controlled by two or more genes. For example the human height is controlled by at least three genes with six alleles. The quantities of the genes are usually large but often have a little effect.
