Multiple Allele
Multiple allele explained in an easy to understand way:
Imagine you're deciding what to wear each morning, and you have a wardrobe full of clothes. Just like choosing the right outfit requires selecting from numerous shirts, pants, and accessories, multiple alleles involve selecting from three or more different versions of a gene. In this analogy, each piece of clothing represents an allele, and your final outfit is like an organism's genetic makeup, depending on which combination of alleles is chosen. This demonstrates how multiple alleles offer a variety of genetic "outfits," allowing for diverse traits, similar to how your wardrobe allows for diverse styles.
