| Question | Answer |
| Non-Mendelian Inheritance | There are genetic interactions other than the autosomal recessive pattern characterized by Mendel. |
| Semidominance | Different alleles for a particular gene have equal effects, so that heterozygotes have intermediate phenotypes e.g. Pink snapdragons |
| Codominance | alleles for a gene that impart independent effects on phenotype. Both traits show equally e.g. - Blood Types |
| Complimentation | complementation refers to a relationship between two different strains of an organism which both have homozygous recessive mutations that produce the same phenotype |
| Polymorphism | More than two alleles for a given gene e.g. eyecolor and ABO blood group for Type O blood. |
| Polygenic inheritance | multiple genes contributing to a phenotype e.g. Height and eye color |
| Epistasis | (Suppressors) Genes that mask the phenotype of a separate gene. e.g. |
