What is an incomplete dominance between red hair and white hair?
red hair is cuter
What is a blended inheritance gene?
If you are talking about two different traits (lets say skin color, caucasian and African American) combining to make a "middle" color (golden tan), it would have to do with incomplete dominance. The traits appearances are not dominant over each other so neither are fully expressed. Some examples of incomplete dominance are: skin color, hair body (curly, wavy, straight), and height in humans. Another type of blending of traits has to do with co-dominance. Co-dominance is the expression of both dominant traits creating a splochy appearance of both traits. Do not confuse this with freckles which is a different trait on its own.
What is expressed when neither copy of an allele completely masks expression of the other but see a blending of alleles?
When neither copy of an allele is completely expressed or completely masked, it is called Incomplete Dominance. When incomplete dominance is present, then the offspring will have a blend of both parental phenotypes but will always be a slight bit slower to one parent than the other.
What traits do not have complete dominance?
An example of incomplete dominance in humans is nose size. If you cross a person with a large nose, with someone with a small nose then the child may have a medium nose. This happens because neither trait dominates the other.
What does it mean to be a hybrid for a trait that is incompletely dominant?
To be hybrid for a trait that is incomplete dominance means that both the mother and the father passed on a gene that was dominant. For example, If you mother has white hair and your father has black hair and both traits are dominant (WB) you will express a gray phenotype.
What characteristics demonstrate incomplete dominance?
hair type, eye distance, eye size, eyebrow color, and red color tints in the hair. :)
What is an incomplete dominance between red hair and white hair?
red hair is cuter
Pictures of incomplete dominance?
Shoot a picture of someone with wavy hair (use it along with straight hair and curly hair, the 2 homozygous genotypes)

A child with wavy hair whose father has curly hair and mother has straight hair is showing incomplete dominance because of the child's what?
straight hair makes the curly lesss curly makes wavy

What are examples of incomplete dominance in humans?
face shape...round and long = oval hair texture...curly and straight = wavy ear size...large and small = medium
If A red flowered plant is crossed with a white flowered plant all of the offspring is pink what inheritance pattern is this?
Incomplete dominance: for example is seen in hair type inheritance. Curly hair type (CC) is dominant to straight hair type (cc). An individual who is heterozygous for this trait will have wavy hair (Cc).
What traits do not have complete dominance?
An example of incomplete dominance in humans is nose size. If you cross a person with a large nose, with someone with a small nose then the child may have a medium nose. This happens because neither trait dominates the other.
Pattern of inheritance in which both alleles contribute to the phenotype of the organism?
The pattern of inheritance in which both alleles contribute to the phenotype of the organism is codominance. For example white and red hair color in cattle. Black and white feather color in certain chickens.
What does it mean to be a hybrid for a trait that is incompletely dominant?
To be hybrid for a trait that is incomplete dominance means that both the mother and the father passed on a gene that was dominant. For example, If you mother has white hair and your father has black hair and both traits are dominant (WB) you will express a gray phenotype.
What are three exception to Mendel's observation?
1.incomplete dominance 2. partial dominance 3.multiple alleles
