Answer

If there are more alleles present for darker skin tone, then the offspring will have darker skin pigment than the parents may have.

There can be varying expressions of pigment color from dark to light based on the alleles received, even in the same family.

The sum of the allele combinations determines the expression of the trait from one degree to the other.

A bell curve shows the quantitative variation.
