Basically, it states there are two forms of a gene called alleles, heterozygous in this case, and one allele masks the expression of the other allele. This is simplified, as it can get complex with co-dominance and partial dominance.
Incomplete dominance
When both the alleles are expressed, it is called co-dominance or mixed dominance.
Incomplete Dominance
Co-dominance.

The Principle of Dominance states that some alleles are dominant and some alleles are recessive. The dominant trait dominates or presents the expression of the recessive trait. Thus, for round seed: (capital) R - round (small) r - wrinkled RR - pure round Rr - hybrid round rr - pure wrinkled

Incomplete Dominance
Co-dominance.
When a heterozygous genotype (two different alleles) results in an intermediate phenotype, this is either codominance or incomplete dominance. If it is codominance, then both alleles are expressed together in the phenotype. If it is incomplete dominance, the two alleles produce a blended phenotype rather than both alleles being expressed together.
It is called codominance or incomplete dominance.

The inheritance of biological characteristics is determined by individual units known as genes. They are passed from parent to offspring.In cases in which two or more alleles of the gene for a single trait exist, some forms of the gene may be dominant or recessive.In most sexually reproducing organisms, each adult has two copies of each gene- one from each parent. These are segregated from each other when gametes are formed.The alleles for different genes usually segregate independently of one another.
