Hair Color

Skin Color

Poinsettia Color

Tobacco Seedling Color

Lung Function (especially those with a predisposition for lung cancer)

Human Liver

Multifactoral inheritance The phenotype is a result of an interaction between your genotype and certain environmental factors The expression of most genes is influenced by environmental conditions Examples: Diabetes Height Heart Disease Can inherit a predisposition to all of these diseases or characteristics Their development (phenotype) is influenced by environmental factors such as proper nutrition, exercise, quality medical care, etc
