In case of incomplete dominance:
Correct answer: A. Phenotype of the heterozygote is intermediate
- A. Phenotype of the heterozygote is intermediate
- B. One allele is completely dominant over the other
- C. Exceed the quantity than phenotype
- D. Both alleles are expressed
Explanation
However, sometimes the heterozygote displays a phenotype that is an intermediate between the phenotypes of both homozygote parents (one of which is homozygous dominant, and the other of which is homozygous recessive). This intermediate phenotype is a demonstration of partial or incomplete dominance.

About Inheritance
Mendel's laws explain segregation, independent assortment and the prediction of genetic ratios using alleles, genotypes and phenotypes. The chapter also covers linked genes, recombination and crossing over during meiosis, then applies pedigree reasoning to X-linked recessive traits, which show different inheritance patterns in males and females.
