Incomplete Dominance
incomplete dominance
because it dominates the phenotype
Incomplete dominance is not a mutation; it is a type of genetic inheritance pattern where neither allele is completely dominant over the other. Mutations, on the other hand, are changes in the DNA sequence that can result in altered traits or functions.
Complete inheritance refers to a situation where one allele is completely dominant over another in a gene pair, resulting in the dominant allele always being expressed in the phenotype, while the recessive allele remains hidden. This type of inheritance follows Mendel's laws of inheritance, where dominant traits mask the expression of recessive traits in an individual's phenotype.
A dominant pedigree refers to a pattern of inheritance in which a dominant allele on a gene is expressed in the phenotype of an individual, masking the effects of a recessive allele. This results in the dominant trait being exhibited in individuals who inherit at least one copy of the dominant allele.

Codominance
Pleiotropy is the term used to describe an inheritance pattern where a single allele affects multiple phenotypic traits. In this pattern, one gene is responsible for controlling or influencing multiple aspects of an organism's phenotype.
Codominance is a genetic inheritance pattern where both alleles for a trait are fully expressed in the phenotype of an individual. This means that neither allele is dominant or recessive, and they both contribute to the observable trait. In contrast, in other forms of genetic inheritance, such as complete dominance or incomplete dominance, one allele may be dominant over the other, leading to a different expression of the trait.
