|---|---|
| What is incomplete dominance? | The heterozygous phenotype is somewhere between the two homozygous phenotypes. It is a mix between two phenotypes. Neither allele is completely dominant or recessive. |
| Example of incomplete dominance. | Red and white flowers make pink flowers. |
| What is codominance? | When both traits are fully and separately expressed. |
| Example of codominance. | Red and white flowers make red and white speckled flowers. |
| Blood type is an example of which two inheritance patterns? | Codominance and multiple alleles. |
| What is multiple alleles? | Having more than two alleles for one gene. |
| Example of multiple alleles. | Fur color in rabbits. |
| What is polygenic inheritance? | A trait produced by two or more genes. It shows a range in phenotype. Epistasis can occur. |
| Examples of polygenic inheritance. | Skin color, eye color, height, and personality. |
| What is epistasis? | When one expression of one gene is masked by other genes. |
| Examples of epistasis. | Labrador retriever fur colors, eye color, and albinism. |
