Understand the definition of each term related to genetic effects on phenotype:
Pleiotropic refers to a single allele influencing multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits.
Codominant describes a situation where two different alleles at a locus are both fully expressed in the heterozygote.
Polygenic refers to a trait controlled by multiple genes, each contributing to the phenotype.
Epistatic describes an interaction where one gene masks or modifies the effect of another gene at a different locus.
