The situation in which the phenotype of heterozygotes is intermediate between the phenotypes of individuals homozygous for either allele.Group of answer choicesincomplete dominancecomplete dominancecodominanceNext
Solution
The situation described is known as incomplete dominance. In incomplete dominance, the phenotype of heterozygotes is a blend or an intermediate of the phenotypes of the two homozygotes. For example, if a red flower (RR) is crossed with a white flower (WW), the resulting offspring (RW) would be pink.
