CODOMINANCE

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Incomplete Dominance or Codominance:A heterozygous flower is a nice pink color, blending the red and white alleles it received.
A
Codominance
B
Incomplete Dominance
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The pink flower color trait, which is an example of incomplete dominance, occurs in nature, such as those found in pink-flower-bearing angiosperms. Turns out the dominant allele is not expressed “completely” as shown in Figures 1 and 2 – incomplete dominance (Punnett square).

Detailed explanation-2: -Incomplete dominance is when the phenotypes of the two parents blend together to create a new phenotype for their offspring. An example is a white flower and a red flower producing pink flowers. Codominance is when the two parent phenotypes are expressed together in the offspring.

Detailed explanation-3: -This pattern of inheritance is described as incomplete dominance, meaning that neither of the alleles is completely dominant over the other: both alleles can be seen at the same time. The allele for red flowers is incompletely dominant over the allele for white flowers. Red + white = pink.

Detailed explanation-4: -Incomplete dominance occurs when neither trait is truly dominant over the other. This means that both traits can be expressed in the same regions, resulting a blending of two phenotypes. If a white and black dog produce a gray offspring, this is an example of incomplete dominance.
