Simple dominance, known as "complete dominance" is when one allele is expressed over another (the recessive gene is not expressed at all).
Two other patterns are incomplete dominance and codominance.
Incomplete dominance is when a trait is expressed that is somewhere inbetween the two alleles. For example, if BB is black fur and bb is white fur, Bb would be grey fur.
Codominance is when both traits are expressed. For example, if RR is red and rr is white, Rr would be white with red spots (or red with white spots).

∙ 11y agoSimple or complete dominance is when one allele is expressed over another. For example, if B codes for black fur and b codes for white fur, an individual with Bb would have black fur.
Incomplete dominance is when a mixture of the traits from both alleles are expressed. With incomplete dominance, an individual with Bb would have grey fur.
Codominance is when the traits from each allele are expressed at the same time. So if B and b were codominant, an individual with Bb would have white and black splotches, stripes or patches.

How does the mode of inheritance affect the prediction and analysis of inheritance patterns?
There are lots of ways. A simple way is to do a Punnett Square. It's useful in studying independent inheritance patterns (multiple traits that are not on the same chromosome).
What is simple dominance?
Dominant allele defines the phenotype expression of the trait.
What is the difference between cytosplasmic and mendelian inheritance?
To make this simple cytoplasmic inheritance is the inheritance of genes in organelles such as mitochondria that do not go through regular mitosis which is Mendelian inheritance. It is a bit more complex than this and can be easily Googled.
Blood types A B AB and O are the result of what inheritance?
it depends on what blood type that your parent has
What is the result when a dominant allele pairs up with a recessive allele in simple dominance?
The dominant form of the trait shows. -Gradpoint
What are traits that follow simple dominance and recessive inheritance called?

Is hand span an example of incomplete dominance?
i wanna know that too, or is it polygenic inheritance or a simple mendelian trait?
What is another name for estate of inheritance?
Another name for an estate of inheritance is FEE SIMPLE. In contrast, a life estate is not an estate of inheritance because it does not pass to one's heirs at death.

Some simple Christmas ornament patterns are present shapes, Santa shapes, patterns on ornaments likes squares, diamonds, triangles, circles and wavy lines.

What dominance is a sweet pea tendrils?
When sweet pea plants with tendrils are crossed with those without tendrils, all the offspring have tendrils. This is simple dominance with tendrils dominant and no tendrils recessive.
Is it true that multiple alleles can be studied only individuals?
Multiple alleles refers to there being more than two alleles for a particular trait. Incomplete dominance is when one allele does not completely mask another (as is usually the case in simple Mendelian inheritance) but instead the two traits are expressed equally. For example, if a red cow (RR) mates with a white cow (WW), their offspring will not be white and red, but a mixture of the two colors roan (RW). That is incomplete dominance.
Why does your German shephard bark at you when he gets a scolding?
Simple dominance ! He sees you as inferior to his authority, and retaliates when scolded !
