Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct option is ‘Multiple alleles’.
Detailed explanation-2: -Gene located at the same locus but having different expression are: Multiple alleles.
Detailed explanation-3: -Multiple alleles are present at the same locus of chromosome. In multiple alleles, three or more alternative forms of a gene (alleles) that can occupy the same locus. A classical example of multiple alleles is found in ABO blood group system of humans.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: pleiotropic genes. Explanation: Genes located on same locus but show more than two different phenotypes are called pleiotropic genes.
Detailed explanation-5: -on the locus of the homologous chromosome, if more than two allelic forms occur then it is called multiple alleles. Additional Information:-Multiple allelism is a phenomenon in which more than two alleles exist in a population of specific organisms.
