How are dominance, codominance and incomplete dominance patterns of inheritance different from each other?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand the differences between dominance, codominance, and incomplete dominance in patterns of inheritance, we can break down each concept step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Dominance**: - In dominance, there are two alleles for a trait, where one allele is dominant over the other. - The dominant allele fully expresses itself, while the recessive allele is masked and does not show its effect in the phenotype. - **Example**: When a red flower (RR) is crossed with a white flower (rr), all offspring will be red (Rr), demonstrating that red is the dominant trait. ...
