"A mix of blue, green, and brown eye colors."

Explanation: Polygenic inheritance involves multiple genes contributing to a single trait, producing a range of continuous phenotypes (e.g., eye color). The others are examples of codominance (red and white in cows), incomplete dominance (red × white → pink flowers), or simple dominance (green seed dominant over yellow).
