  1. Polymorphism (biology) - Wikipedia

    • Put simply, polymorphism is when there are two or more possibilities of a trait on a gene. For example, there is more than one possible trait in terms of a jaguar's skin colouring; they can be light morph or dark morph. Due to having more than one possible variation for this gene, it is termed 'polymorphism'. See more

    Overview

    In biology, polymorphism is the occurrence of two or more clearly different morphs or forms, also referred to as alternative

    Terminology

    Monomorphism means having only one form. Dimorphism means having two forms.
    • Polymorphism does not cover characteristics showing continuous variation (such as weight), though this has a heritable … See more

    Mechanisms

    Three mechanisms may cause polymorphism:
    Genetic polymorphism – where the phenotype of each individual is genetically determined
    • A conditional development strategy, w… See more
