Question
In incomplete dominance __________________________.
Phenotype of both the alleles is expressed in progeny.
Phenotype of only one allele is expressed in progeny.
Phenotype of none of the alleles is expressed in progeny.
Phenotype of both the alleles is partially expressed in progeny.
Phenotype of both the alleles is expressed in progeny.
Phenotype of only one allele is expressed in progeny.
Phenotype of none of the alleles is expressed in progeny.
Phenotype of both the alleles is partially expressed in progeny.
Hint:
Phenotype of both the alleles are partially expressed in the progeny.
The correct answer is: Phenotype of both the alleles is partially expressed in progeny.
- In incomplete dominance none of the allele is completely dominant over the other.
- The phenotype expressed in a heterozygous organism is intermediate between the phenotypes of both the alleles.
- For example, the flower colour in Snapdragon and Mirabilis jalapa.
