Then a combination of the two visual forms of the alleles (meaning any visual things the alleles cause get combined) is formed. Either that, or one pair dominates the other, and the new person becomes a carrier of the dominated pair.

How does codominance work and why does it happen?

Incomplete dominance occurs when a homozygous genotype produces an intermediate, or middle phase before the result. This intermediate is the heterozygous' phenotype.

What is the seperation of alleles?

The law of segregation of alleles, the first of Mendel's laws, stating that every somatic cell of an organism carries a pair of hereditary units (now identified as alleles) for each character, and that at meiosis the pairs separate so that each gamete carries only one unit from each pair. This is called the law of segregation.


What has happens when an allele becomes fixed?

As alleles become fixed, there is an overall decline in heterozygosity as each population become homozygous for one or the other of the alleles.


If the alleles are neither dominant or recessive what happens?

If neither are Dominant Or Recessive then its called co dominance or spuedo - dominance


What happens in Mendel's experiments when a pea plant received two different alleles for the same trait?

Unless the alleles are codominate (which Mendel did not have in pea plants), one will be dominate and will be what you see (phenotype) and one will be recessive and you will not see it.
