Question
what is meant by incomplete dominance?
○ homozygotes have phenotypes in which the two forms of the allele are expressed separately.
○ heterozygotes have a phenotype that is a mixture of the two alleles.
○ in homozygotes only the dominant form of the allele is expressed.
○ the dominant allele in an x - linked trait is more likely to be expressed in males than in females.
○ the two alleles in a heterozygote each equally produce their own distinct phenotype.
Incomplete dominance is a genetic pattern where the heterozygous phenotype is an intermediate blend of the two homozygous phenotypes, rather than one allele completely masking the other. This matches the description of heterozygotes having a mixed phenotype from the two alleles.
