Incomplete Dominance occurs when an organism has two different alleles (genes) and instead of one being dominant over the other, the two genes blend together creating a third phenotype (physical trait).

For example: Let’s say that a flower received a RED allele (gene) from “mom” and a WHITE allele (gene) from “dad”. The flower would be PINK because the RED and WHITE alleles would blend (mix) together.

A puppy receives a black allele from mom and a white allele from dad. What color would the puppy be if fur color follows the rules of Incomplete Dominance?

2.

A plant receives one blue allele and one yellow allele from its parents. What color would the plant be if leaf color follows the rules of Incomplete Dominance?

3.

A baby receives a curly hair gene from dad and straight hair gene from mom. What type of hair would the baby have if the rules of Incomplete Dominance apply?

4.

Which of these 2 examples show Incomplete Dominance?

Co-Dominance occurs when an organism has two different alleles (genes) and BOTH GENES SHOW UP in the phenotype.

For example: Let’s say that a flower received a RED allele and a WHITE allele from its parents. The flower would be have RED AND WHITE SPOTS. Both the red and white genes are equally dominant, so they both show up.

In some chickens, the gene for feather color is controlled by Co-Dominance. The allele for black is B and the allele for white is W. The heterozygous phenotype is known as erminette.

What is the genotype for black chickens?
