When phenotype of a heterozygote is in between the phenotypes of both the homozygous parents, it is called:
Correct answer: A. Incomplete dominance
- A. Incomplete dominance
- B. Epistasis
- C. Pleiotropy
- D. Codominance
Explanation
This type of relationship between alleles, with a heterozygote phenotype intermediate between the two homozygous phenotypes, is called incomplete dominance. In the question, "in between" is closest in meaning to "intermediate", thus incomplete dominance is the correct choice. Thus, the correct answer is 'Diphtheria, Leprosy, Plague.'
