Detailed explanation-1: -The probability that the offspring is green would have to be 25%, this is due to the incomplete dominance found in the yellow jellyfish and the blue jellyfish. The probability that the offspring is green would have to be 50%, this is due to the incomplete dominance found in the yellow jellyfish and the blue jellyfish.

Detailed explanation-2: -Many of the jellyfish are yellow (YY) or blue (BB), but some end up green as a result of incomplete dominance.

Detailed explanation-3: -In incomplete dominance, the phenotype in a heterozygous individual is visibly less intense than that in an individual homozygous for the dominant allele, so that AA and Aa genotypes produce different phenotypes. Hence, the heterozygote (Aa) will have a phenotype intermediate between that of AA and aa individuals.

Detailed explanation-4: -With incomplete dominance, a cross between organisms with two different phenotypes produces offspring with a third phenotype that is a blending of the parental traits. It’s like mixing paints, red + white will make pink.

Detailed explanation-5: -5. As we know, SpongeBob is heterozygous for his yellow body color and his squarepants, while his wife SpongeSusie is blue and has roundpants. Use this information to answer the following questions.
