The crossing of a red flowered plant and a white flowered plant produces all the offspring with pink flowers. This cross illustrates red and white exhibit incomplete dominance. ... With the result, the heterozygous offspring will be phenotypically and genotypically different from either of the homozygous parent.

When there is incomplete dominates what happens?

If there is incomplete dominance, the offspring will have an intermediate of phenotype. For example, if you mate a homozygous white flowered snapdragon plant with a homozygous red flowered snapdragon plant, you will get pink flowered offspring.


What allele relationship does it display if you cross a plant with red flowers with a plant with white flowers both plants are pure-breeding and all the offspring have pink flowers?

multipule alleles(novanet)


What is example of incomplete dominance?

incomplete dominance is the mixture of the colors, for example a red and white flower mate and create a pink flower.


How do incomplete dominance and codominance improve the quality of plant and animal breeds?

Incomplete dominance and codominance can lead to a wider range of phenotypic traits in plant and animal breeds, offering more variability for breeders to select from. This can help in creating breeds with desired characteristics, such as better resistance to diseases or improved aesthetic qualities. Additionally, these genetic mechanisms can promote genetic diversity within breeds, which can increase their overall health and adaptability.


What is an example of phenotype blending?

Phenotype blending is illustrated in the inheritance of flower color in certain plants, such as snapdragons. When red-flowered snapdragons are crossed with white-flowered ones, the resulting offspring often exhibit a pink phenotype, demonstrating a mix of the parental traits. This blending occurs because neither color is completely dominant, leading to an intermediate expression in the offspring. This concept is a key feature of incomplete dominance in genetics.


What happened when Mendel crossed a purple flowered pea plant with a white flowered plant?

Mendel observed that all the offspring had purple flowers, showing that purple is dominant over white in pea plants. He discovered the principle of dominance and the concept of alleles.


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).


A cross between homozygous purple-flowered and homozygous white-flowered pea plants results in offspring with purple flowers This demonstrates?

A homozygous purple flower and a homozygous white flower having offspring that are purple is an example of dominance. Traits that yield to other traits is referred to as recessive. So in this case Purple was the dominant trait and White was the recessive trait.


How is a snapdragon an example of an incomplete dominance?

A snapdragon is an example of an incomplete dominance because when a snapdragon plant having red flowers is crossed with another plant having white flowers, all F1 plants bear red flowers but in F2 generation, the plant population segregates in to 1 red : 2 pink : 1 white flowered plants ratio.


How many red flowered offspring and how many white flowered offspring are produced when one parent has two genes for red flowers and one parent is hybrid?

All Red, no white.


Why a trait inherited by incomplete dominate is not a blend of two alleles?

Actually incomplete dominance is where the result is a blend of the two alleles. The typical example is the the crossing of red flowered parent and a white flowered parent that results in pink flowered offspring.Co-Dominance is where both traits are expressed equally. The most common example is the blood type AB.


Why were all the offsprins purple when gregor menel crossed true breeding purple flowered plants with true breeding white flowered plants?

All the offspring were purple because Mendel was dealing with simple genetic dominance. The purple true breeding parent was homozygous dominant and the true breeding white parent was homozygous recessive. When those two are crossed they create only heterozygous offspring (look up a punnett) and since this is simple dominance those heterozygous will show the phenotype of the dominant allele which is purple.
