The heterozygote of red/white flower color which was incompletely dominant would be...

Question

A. white

B. red and white

C. red

D. pink

Answer 1

D pink

Answer 2

Incomplete dominance is when 2 alleles at a gene locus are partially expressed. This usually forms a new phenotype. This this case the answer is pink (red and white both expressed partially creating a new color which is pink).

This is not to be confused with Co-dominance where both dominant alleles gets expressed fully. This would result in a spotted pink and white flower. Another example of co-dominance is blood types (A, B, AB, and O).

Answer 3

Think about what "incompletely dominant" means, and that will give you your answer.

Answer 4

D. Pink- If the trait is incompletely dominant that means the phenotype will be a mixture of the two dominant alleles.  In this case, red + white will make pink.
