Answer: J Flower color in snapdragons is an example of a trait that is not inherited according to Mendel's laws of heredity.

Explanation: The inheritance of flower color in snapdragons is an example of incomplete dominance, where the offspring have a phenotype that is intermediate between the phenotypes of the two parental alleles. This means that the inheritance of the trait cannot be explained solely by the presence of dominant and recessive alleles, which is the basis of Mendel's laws.
