Question

What is a possible benefit to an organism expressing codominant or incomplete dominant traits? (Please explain what incomplete/codominant means)

Answer 1

Answer: It increase in fitness and genetic diversity .

Step-by-step explanation:

Incomplete dominance : It is a type of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait does not completely dominant its paired allele.

Example : Cross pollination between red snapdragon and white snapdragon dragon . And results of pollination (cross) is pink snapdragon .

Co -Dominance. It occurs when both allele of a genes lack dominant and recessive relationships are phenotypically observed to the same extent .

In the heterozygous state , each allele has a distinct phenotypic effect .

Example : ABO Blood group is the best example of Co -dominance .

Answer 2

Form of Gene interaction in which both alleles of a gene at a locus are partially expressed softening resulting in an intermedia or different phenotype.
