Different forms of the same gene are called alleles.
The different forms of a gene are called alleles.
Incomplete dominance is a trait that can result when an organism receives genes for two different forms of the same trait. In this case, neither form of the trait is fully expressed, leading to a blending of the two forms.
Mendel found that certain forms of genes were dominant to other forms of genes. This means that when an organism has two different forms of a gene, one form will be expressed over the other in determining the trait it controls.
Two or more genes which control the same characteristic.
Genes on the same chromosome are said to be linked

Incomplete dominance is a trait that can result when an organism receives genes for two different forms of the same trait. In this case, neither form of the trait is fully expressed, leading to a blending of the two forms.
The two different molecular forms of a gene are called alleles.
Alternative forms of genes are also known as alleles. Alleles are different versions of a gene that can result in variations in a specific trait. Each individual carries two alleles for each gene, one inherited from each parent.
Mendel found that certain forms of genes were dominant to other forms of genes. This means that when an organism has two different forms of a gene, one form will be expressed over the other in determining the trait it controls.
The closer two genes are on the same chromosome, the more likely they are to be inherited together, a phenomenon known as genetic linkage. This is because the likelihood of the genes being separated during the process of genetic recombination decreases as their proximity increases.
same
Linked genes, because they are physically close together on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together.
A dominant trait is expressed when two different genes for the same trait are present.
Two or more genes which control the same characteristic.
homozygous
Homozygous
Genes on the same chromosome are said to be linked
